I would LUV a 5th Gen in this color

I doubt Olive Green (which is what it is pretty much) will ever make much of a comeback.

Or at least I hope so... God, that's a hiedous color (imo)! LOL

My parents had an old VW Bug in that color as well as a 1970 Camaro in that color.

I doubt anyone will disagree that Black is a beautiful color... When it's clean. And it only stay's clean for 5 minutes.

My mother likes her cars black, but even she admits they are horrible when it comes to staying clean looking.

Friend of mine has a 1999 Regal in Black. It shows every water spot, swirl mark, tiny hairline scratch (that would be completely hidden on white or silver) and the tiny nicks a cars front tends to get from stones over time. He's already said he'll never own another black vehicle.

Gimme White or Silver... Both are Clean and Modern looking colors. As well as actually STAYING clean looking over time moreso than darker colors.

The gold metal flake really made the paint job, it would glow...

Purple is my color, much like Electric Purple color on the Ford Ranger So I guess I loose out either way I go...but I am sure I will be happy with whatever I get.

that aint no joke if you even think about something dirty it will show on your car, if there is the slightest breeze with 10 particles of dirt in it, 9 of those particles will end up on my car, sometimes when its dirty i say "whyd i buy a black car?" then i wash it and say "thats why i bought a black car!!"

I'm a fan of purple myself. The dark purple of the 91/92 Camaro's is my favorite.

Unfortunately I doubt we'll see that as an option. So white or silver it is. LOL

i agree...I've said it before - this car (thank God) doesn't look bad in any colors...it will make my choosing a car off the lot much easier!

But if I had my choice I'd go with one of three, Sliver with black stripes, Dark Blue (maybe white stripes), or Silver with Blue stripes

Funding is a little tight (college and all) but I WILL have one, just have to be patient.

I'm hoping they offer Lemans blue with black stripes. I'm still not sure what stripes I want most, black hockey stick like my 69 or the over-the-top z28 stripes...
