Then I went to Sherwin-Williams Automotive and had them mix me up some Synergy Green, and I took the time to mask them and paint them myself--put the green over a silver base, then threw down a nice coat of super-hard clearcoat over the entire face (minus the matte black parts). Turned out great.

Those wheels add an unbelievable look to the car. My hats off to you! A lot of time what you piucture in your head isn't what it turns out to be, but you went way beyond my thoughts.

Thanks a lot man! Good to hear high praise like that.

Put new door panels in today and took off 68 nose/side stripe when ss facia went on. I have new stripe to go but now i'm not so sure...what do you guys think?

[camaro2lt]

looks good scott......but the screws went through your panel....just take the handle of a screw driver and you can flatten those out

[scottc]

Already done Richie, thanks!

We just bought a 2010 synergy green 1lt with a manual transmission, it has the gray metallic racing stripes. Does any one know how many of theses were made. Thanks! Also we have noticed that they made a aqua blue camaro with white racing stripes into 2010, is that the only year they made them and is the ss model the only model u could get that way.

465 with the manual trans. (403 delivered in US) 2425 total Synergys produced.
And welcome to C5!

Any idea how many 2011 were made with a manual? Does anybody know how I would find out how many were produced with the same options?

welcome aboard. good choice. the Aqua blue was available on all camaros, but only for a very short time. was cancelled very early in the 2010 model year.

Sorry. I only know the 2010 production numbers of Synergy and Transformer Special Editions, because they were posted by Fbodfather.

RJT, SGM, and as far as I know; ABM all relied on a component mineral (or minerals) from Northern Japan. The tsunami knocked out production, and that is why Red Jewel Tintcoat was replaced with Crystal Red Tintcoat. They had to use a different name because the formula was different. I'm guessing they still haven't come up with a suitable replacement for ABM. Word on the street is that Synergy Green Metallic will be retired with the 2012 model year because there is not enough of a supply left to continue offering it. One can guess that GM is well into working on a replacement. They may already be sitting on it!

Congrats and welcome to the SGM family! I thought all the 2010 SGMs had the Grey stripes?

Driving along, ~40mph. Idiot who barely speaks English (from some African country) runs a stop sign. Guy to the right of me slams on his brakes, but he was ahead of me, and I didn't really see the guy coming from the side street on the right until it was too late. BAM! Across both oncoming lanes, down an embankment, and through a white wooden fence. The other car lost a wheel. I barely felt the impact (awesome crumple zones I guess), but she was totaled. I was the first and last owner. Less than one year old. :(

Oh, and the clincher: The other driver didn't have insurance, or a license, or even ID, and he was driving a POS 2001 Alero that wasn't in his name. Thanks a lot, asshole! He had 4 or 5 people in his car, and I don't think they were all wearing seatbelts.

Oh, and for those who think the Camaro's fenders and doors and hood and stuff are plastic -- they're not.

Enjoy!

I played a bad joke with the wife using your photos above, She was about to cry till she took a good hard look at the photos..

She is still upset at me about it!! LOL!!!

Sorry about the car nonetheless it sucks to look at them..

Me too! Now we know where the "3" are. Where are the other 400?


(And yes Marvin, all 2010 Synergy LE packages came standard with Cyber Grey Metallic Rally Stripes. If you see a 2010 with something different, somebody somewhere did some peeling!)
