I feel exactly as you do about the color selection. Right now I'm going with SIM, but I too am worried that it will not have the "wow" factor. Black does hide the shape and I don't know if I could drive an Orange car. RJT is very nice, and I'm over 25 and like the Beige interior so...

Just sending a little bit of "enthusiasm" your way!!!!!!!!!!!

dect, you may have ordered SIM, but you already said that RJT was amazing and you say it looks a little old, but think of it this way. Who else your age is gonna be daring enough to get the "old-man color"? This would make you an EPIC stand out...............a one-of-a-kind.

P.S. Are you old enough to drive yet?

dect · 04-10-2009, 10:58 PM

SIM is very.. Neutral I will probably go to RJT now that I think about it... Any stripes?

dect · 04-10-2009, 10:58 PM

yes, I am old enough to drive

Hootin · 04-10-2009, 10:59 PM

Dude honestly i'm in high school too, and ppl arent gonna say shit about the color you choose, b/c they will be to busy shittin their pants lookin at it haha

towmoe · 04-10-2009, 10:59 PM

I say black, btw, do the black rally stipes have a sheen or are they flat black?

dect · 04-10-2009, 11:01 PM

I believe they are flat black..

Yea, I know that people will be pissing their pants from the car but we also have some competition at my school. A kid has a mustang (dare I say it) a bad ass mustang.. It's California Style and everything. Hood Scoop Black Rims etc. etc. that's my competition and I plan on kicking his ass so I need to win:Pp

Ok, I found the right word for RJT.

I do not feel it has the "bad ass" factor you know? The dude that's a bad ass color like Black or IOM

Hootin · 04-10-2009, 11:05 PM

personally i dont like RJT but thats me, and i see that color on a sedan so i know what you mean with the kinda old factor haha, i would go with IOM

Beige would suit that colour. And if you want stripes, I think you might be better to go with white if you have a light interior. If not, then go with black. Also, what type of stripes? The twin rally stripes or the single hood + hockey stripes combo? But I don't think any stripes will do much for the red jewel.

dect · 04-10-2009, 11:07 PM

The double rally

I don't like the single stripe at all. Just me.

ZYAL8R · 04-10-2009, 11:16 PM

That Camaro behind you in your pic looks Bad Ass to me.

Hope you can make up your mind and get the color you really want, but I leave you with this little tidbit.

In 03, I ordered a GMC Crew 4 x 4.......Toreador Red............similar but not as illustrious as RJT. Dealer told me, "Well we haven't ordered that color b/c no one wants that color on a truck." Exactly what I needed to hear and ordered anyway. Since then.................I get comments everywhere I go on what a sharp looking color it is.

Sooooooo....you still have the choice to make.

I changed my Camaro color twice...............but I came back to what my gut was telling me............and that is the best advice I can give. The gut knows all!

nUcLeArEnVoY · 04-10-2009, 11:16 PM

IOM is fruity? If you think IOM is fruity, you're clearly homophobic, bro. Who gives a turkey what anyone thinks? You think they will say you're fruity when you're haulin' around all the girls in your bitchin' sled?

An orange of any type is needed on the Camaro since it's such an iconic color for the car and IOM matches the original Hugger Orange more than any other color on the current GM palette.

Fruity never even occurred to me when I chose IOM... so people think oranges are fruity? This is news to me. I thought buying orange cars was an extension of a vibrant, tenacious personality... oh well. I got orange because when I think Camaro, I think orange.

Get IOM, it looks far better than your other choices... except maybe black. The only reason I'm not getting black is because I want a contrasting tail panel blackout which is pointless on a blackc ar.

ZYAL8R · 04-10-2009, 11:20 PM

Forgot to add that if you get RJT, you won't have to worry about stripes..............b/c that would look "Fruity"!
