Rarest camaro color? Which do you think will be most valuable? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Like the title says, Which color on the 5th gen was produced the least? And which color do you expect to be the most valuable down the road?

IMHO, CRT.

I'm not sure about which color is the rarest or most valuable. I'm just glad they haven't produced a Mary Kay Camaro. Pink or Champagne is just wrong for a Camaro.

Deep Magenta was the least produced at just under 1,000 cars if I remember reading right on their "official page". Not knocking people who own one, but I don't want a pinkish purple Camaro.

As far as most rare/desirable, I recently saw an Aqua Blue Metallic like mine except that it was a 1SS non RS go for $2k less than what I paid for mine 3 years ago and I have a 2SS/RS with more options added. Because that color is one of the rarest I would say that it could hold its own quite well compared to other colors. Another rare/desirable is the 2011 Synergy Green SS. In 2010 it was only available later in the run and only as a V6. In 2011 they gave the option for a SS (as you know OP since you have one), but still real low production numbers. Those two have my pick for most desirable/rare color car.

Deep Magenta Metallic lowest production. Most valuable hard to say. An IBM ZL1 in 2013 I think was pretty low production, maybe 2 or 3.

Ha, you beat me to it! As far as SGM goes, a 2011 Synergy Green Metallic
Synergy series SS would take the cake.

I know I paid a premium for an SGM SS L99. But I knew that going in. I could have paid less and stayed closer to home if I had wanted a different color.

Value is in the eye of the buyer. There is someone out there willing to buy whatever combination you have. Unless it has a v-6

SteelCamaro · 08-14-2016, 07:52 PM

I could see Carbon Flash Metallic falling under this category down the road. Everyone thinks it's just black until they get closer.

I have a deep magenta metallic

manual ^_^.. however, it's a v6 and no rs package which was a head scratcher but it's a 2LT. :/

I couldn't find any SGM 2SS's, so I had one shipped from New York to California... You do pay a premium though over a similar car in a common color

There is only 1 ZL1 made in this color.

I've got an '11 SS M6 SGM, And I dont see it being worth any kind of outrageous markup in the future.

Well because you have an m6 I think it'll be worth more than an a6
