I've wondered if that's not the color on the ZL1 Pace car, if it's not it's close.....I reckon we'll see, hopefully when they announce the 14's.

That is a sharp color !

I'd figure they are the standard ZL1 20X10 and 20X11's.

I knew a dealership back in the 90's when I was ordering my Trans Am when they offered Red Leather told me not to order it....said his district manager told him it didn't look good and not to order any for them to sell.....Obviously he would have ordered it just for me.....but none for the lot for people to see...so they didn't hardly sell any red interiors.

Just got home today from our local dealer.....Had probably 100 trucks.....Mainly Black/White/Brownish-Gold colors.

They just did start making a sharp blue on them this year (2013) and they
had none !

Blue Topaz Metallic !...But people won't buy it if the dealers won't order any.

This is an amazing blue! Looks great in person.

Another could be as to why there is no manual gearbox offered either?

Appearantly there is a green colour offered... will these be available for the Camaro as well??

I dig it! It is a replacement for the G8, so that's why they look similar.

Nice powerful sedan.

Watching the race it looked like the advertisement with Jimmie Johnson ( new car smell ) for the new SS race car, it looked like there was a red Camaro sitting on the lot in the back ground with the silver 10 spokes on it. If so they must be available now.

Are those ZL-1 wheels polished or painted?

[mr_lurch]

Love the Blue color! I had an 2008 G8 GT, loved the car with the Pontiac grill. (Love my Camaro ZL 575 much more)....The 2014 SS is exactly the same as the G8 it just has Chevy badging and some cosmetic changes like the grill etc. It is also supposed to be Chevy's replacement Police cruiser.

I dont know why GM doesnt do more of these great looking bright colors. People love them and want to buy them. They said they want to start marketing the C7 Corvette to a younger crowd, well they really should offer more brighter colors like some of these. The brighter colors get a great response from buyers.

GM seems to like a lot of boring colors or darker looking colors. Ed Welburn in a video said they (at GM) favor the greyish or silver colors because they think people want "safe colors". Colors that do not stand out that much.

Sorry, but as a buyer i DO NOT want a "safe color". I want a great looking high energy color that makes you feel good. I like Black on a car also, But the last few years i've been wanting the brighter colors. Kinda like Synergy Green. That was a great color. I also like the brighter blue colors, not the darker ones. Lately it seems like GM has favored the darker looking blues. I know somewhere in GM they have to have some good looking blue colors, they should do more of them.

They should put some of the "safe" boring colors on the shelf for a while and do more of these great looking brighter colors.

I agree!

Why buy a silver Camaro (no offense) but to me, it blends in like any honda / lexus whatever car.. (still love all Camaro's)...

I saw that too !

I think it was these 2013 18' wheels though....from that distance they look pretty similar.

Did they say if they were polished or chrome ?

I'm thinking polished because they don't look quite this shiny....but they sure look great !
