Red is not the color for this car - Page 7 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I think that victory red shows off the body lines the best out of all other colors, changing colors remind me of import cars.

You know what leftdust...you're right. Red's a horrible color on this car.

I think I'll sell mine to someone that doesn't care what other's think about the color....Oh, wait, that would be me.

+1.

So the guy doesn't like red? Big deal. Don't know why everyone here is so upset about it, everyone has different tastes. Good thing they do, or everyone would be driving the same color car.

Looks good if i don't say so myself.

Really? I think red looks GREAT!

Tsudy · 09-08-2009, 11:06 PM

I'd have to agree on the red - it just doesn't "pop" for me. I've seen a few red ones on the road lately and it's almost like the design of the car and the paint make it look entirely made out of plastic.

The same goes for Rally Yellow. For me it's just something with the design/paint combination.

Other colors I've seen, though, happen to look amazing:

Black (of course)
Cyber Grey
Summit White

I saw an Aqua Blue Metallic while driving, too, and it was a very overcast-y day and looked very, very teal (shudder). I'm hoping that's not the norm since it's what I ordered, but I definitely wasn't jumping up for joy at seeing ABM for the first time.

Everyone is of course entitled to their own opinion. I happen to think that VR with white stripes really pops on this car.

I like my VR, it is my second one. Each one to his/her own preference though.

I flew across the country to pick up our second VR Camaro, Nuff said.
