Why are there so many Synergy Green Camaro's in my city?
I would assume( though I know what you get for assuming) that a color that was only used on a limited number of cars that they no longer use would make it a little more rare of a Camaro to see. I know the Synergy Green color started on the V6 models and the next year went to the SS. There just happens to be 3 or more others in my city of under 80,000 people, one I know is a V6 but the other 2 are an SS. One has upgraded wheels with synergy green trim in the chrome and another has chrome and black trimmed wheels. All of them have the black rally stripe( mine included) but I believe mine is the only one with the performance mods. Anyways, just a rant, for a rare color theres a hell of a lot in my town and for as small as it is.

Paint your stripes purple with yellow polka dots. Then it will be different.
In all seriousness, change your stripes to white or something. If it really bothers you that much, there are things you can do to differentiate. |

Lowering springs, heritage grille, changes to the wheels, anything that makes it your own. Also whenever you believe there are too many green ones, just look at all the black ones.
In 2011 Green was less than 4% of the total number produced. |

Has to be a coincidence. In Tucson (500,000) I've only seen one on a regular basis and there are none in the Tucson Camaro club. I guess your city has a lot of green lovers.

Same here, there is 3 in my small town. But mine is the one without black stripes. I didn't want to cover up this awesome color.

Because it's a great color and people were smart enough to buy one while you could still get them. I had a 2004 Wrangler Rubicon that was almost the same color. They only made them for a year or two. It was the best color car I ever owned. If they still made the green Camaros, that's what I'd have. It is strange you have so many around you. Phoenix is a big place and I've only seen that color once or twice.

My fiancee has corrected me its a city of only 30,000 people but there are 3 small surrounding towns of around 10,000 or more.
Formare, good idea I'll keep it in mind next time I'm raising Kane. Kettleone, Yeah I planned on changing up the exterior just wanted to handle the performance and suspension first. I like some of those Ideas though and only 4% of Synergy Green is way lower than I''d thought. Run and Gun, Yeah, I thought about doing white rally or black hockey sticks. The most popular colors where I live are red and my green and only half the people in them seem to be friendly and wave to there fellow 5th gen driver. WTH. My city is like the cruise capitol of the south, not for certain but at least in Kentucky.
