![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() *gets in and heads to dealer who said that* ![]() Cannot be done. A couple of issues: We would have to flush out an entire paint line - (not easy) -- and then re-validate the paint - remember, there are several paint surfaces of different materials - you can't just 'start up' the line again. For instance - when we dropped Silver in the 2001 model year and brought it back for 2002 - we could not build silver cars for about 5 weeks due to mis-matched paint...... Second: The supplier of the fascias and such would have to re-tool to paint them ABM - (....more info. on THAT at www.ain'tgonnahappen.com....) And -- to the person who said ABM and Jetstream aren't the same - you are partially correct........however, our friend Jerry Noonan had his Jetstream Blue Berger SS at the Gathering in Atlanta last year - and when you put it RIGHT NEXT to an ABM car - there was a decided difference -but when you put another Camaro between them - hardly any difference........ Yes -it would be great if we could build a 'special run' - but when we do - it's $$$$$$$$$$$$ as evidenced by the Neiman-Marcus Convertibles.......... You'd be better off having a quality bodyshop paint your Camaro in the color you desire. (.........$$$$.......)

The number is higher than that and only on trucks. There ARE exceptions such as Mary Kay - but the numbers are much higher than 6........and Camaro does not have that option. We WILL two-tone for police agencies, I believe - but it's a batch-build and we paint the cars one color (must be a color in the palette) and the panels that are to be painted the second color (again, a color in the palette) are painted after the fact. (example: Black Camaro with White doors/trunk/hood for police use)

I have tried and tried to convince myself that the VR or Black with red stripe convertibles will satisfy my thirst for a Camaro. Every time I see a ABM with white racing stripes..I realize that's the only color I really want.
There's a couple for sale in the Houston area and I'm really working on my wife ...wish me luck!TnT91
