I chose SIM/IO because I wanted it to be the closest to the Concept Car as I could get!!

And although before I decided to order a Camaro, I convinced myself that my next car would be black. But in my opinion, Black on the Camaro hides the beautifully crafted surfaces. Silver, being a light-mid-tone... allows for highlights and shadows, which really shows off the car's design.

Aqua Blue was my first and only choice, I am doing it in memory of my brother who passed away, he had a 1968 blue that was pretty close to this color. I also like blue it's my favorite color.

I fell in love with the Concept which was silver so there was no other colour except SIM for me.

Funny- My dad's '69 Camaro was white with black interior, v/top and stripes. Early 327 v/8. I've always liked white cars and now drive a white Chev Impala. I want a Light car. To me most new Camaro colors are dark and dull. My 2SS/RS is now at 3400, TPW THIS WEEK !!. Can't wait.
