You are right there. My car looks GREAT at night and in the shade.

After 3 and a half years and a bazillion chips it looks like shit in the sun.

But for real, why would you not buy the color you like the most?

While this poll may not match the sales figures exact, it won't be much different.

There are a lot of people who settle for the colors available on the lot. But your color can be found and if not then ordered.
Well if you want to get technical Black is actually the absence of color so it's not a valid choice. So it will NEVER be the best color.

IOM!

Of course I didn't go to order black. I got one of those color strips back in 2008 and at Mardi Gras a few months later I asked everyone I saw what color. I decided on RJT and went to the dealer to order.

When I got the the dealer on Monday I totally had my mind made up for RJT but 'Black' came out of my mouth. ABSOLUTELY a true story.

I suspect it would happen again if I ordered another car.

To me, (WHEN CLEAN) there is no better, sexier, badder looking color.

Lol. There was times I didn't even want to try it(after I washed it), and if I did I'd want to do it only during dusk. Keep the Halos on and DRLs, and you got sexiness.

IOM!
Colors exist in the larger context of human vision. Consider the fact that there are three parts to the process of the perception of color.
1. The medium - The color as it exists as a pigment/colorant (such as the color of a tangible object) or as light (such as the color of an image on a television screen).
2. The sender - How the color is transmitted.
3. The receiver - How humans see color. In other words, how we receive information about color.
(If a tree falls in the forest and there is nobody around does it make a sound? Does a color exist if there is no one to see it?)

I have to say Victory Red, since I just bought one. However, IOM would be my next choice.

I voted for black simply because I drive a black one. Really I just like the Camaro style and every color looks great. If only I had the funds,I'd have one in every color made and change it up every week or so.

Regardless, I love the Camaro, no matter what color except that hideous one in gold and green.
Yea why no IBM

Black is the absence of light, not color. You are mistaking that with white.
