Silver Ice...hands down.

Let me be clear when I say I LOOOOOVE all of the colors the Camaro come in. Cyber Gray and Imperial Blue especially pull my eyes everytime...

But when I look at the ZL1, and see the black ground effects, black-painted hood insert and front air dam, the rear diffuser, etc...I think those bold details get lost in darker colors; where silver seems to achieve a perfect contrast (see the Leno Concept)....

Can't wait.....

I agree 100%. I think White can pull it off also. But that is my worry with the IOM and RY colors, too much going on!

I think White, Yellow, Orange, and Red could also pull off the look I favor very well. But silver is much higher on my list than those four (while I still love the way they look.)

Now that GM has brought back Torch Red to the Vette, I won't settle for anything less. Victory is a poor excuse for a red when next to Torch, although it is better than Precision Red which GM tried to get away with on the '05 Vette

I agree. Right now for me it is Silver, White, Yellow, and Orange in that order.

You know - I think about this sometimes. That's also why I think that it'd be great to see GM get and or add colors with a lot of depth. I forget the name of that black on the CTS, but I think that would just pop around the curves on ZL1. It's not going to be easy to see those little highlights, but that's where my selfishness comes in; I don't care of not everyone sees those little things, because not everyone is going to appreciate all the style. I'd like to see a blue with some more read in it, but the deeper the color the better, IMHO.

CAMARO is the first car that I really liked white on. With some dark stripes, I think it's just B E A U T I F U L. I still wouldn't buy it, but it looks GREAT!

I am also thinking about the black and argent-type colored body parts and wonder if it would look good in a blue or black for me. I really like the extractor and stripe, but I don't care for the argent/black splitter, rocker moldings, and rear diffuser. I'd prefer them body color. That pushes me toward a darker color because then they wouldn't stand out as much to my eyes. I might just have to get them painted, and I don't have a problem with that.

I think it'd just be nice to have a richer color choice. I think that we're seeing a lot of positive improvements and changes, and it's getting tougher to really nail down a choice. Fortunately, I have time, so it'll be nice to see what ya'll pick up. I can't wait for pictures

Interestingly, I feel the opposite. I like the black accents, because to me it breaks up the monotony of the paint color, and on the sides...helps the car appear even more svelte than it already is.

True, true, true. I'm one of those monochromatic types. I don't like a lot of chrome or stainless. While I like the style, I didn't like the OEM color of the GM GFX. They could be painted at an extra cost, but I just could never fully appreciate unpainted ones. However - I can appreciate these accents can differentiate ZL1 from existing models and identify it better. Me - I don't need that so much because any car person will notice (and I don't care for non-car people, lol). I DO like how subtle the enhancements are and really think GM's done a great job. I was hoping for something a little more aggressive in the diffuser, but I'm really happy with everthing else. I was a little affraid of what was to be the spoiler, but I think it's come out great.

I still haven't voted. I think it would've been nice to have a "new color" choice, but there are plenty of great colors to choose from right now
