2023 Camaro Configurator?

Anyone got any idea when this will finally be on line. Friend got t-boned & totaled his 17 Garnet Red Tintcoat SS M6. Trying to find accurate picture of the new Radiant Red has been a nightmare. Is is darker red or closer to Red Hot which he does not want. Second choice was Satin Steel which is being replaced by Sharkskin. Older cash buyer and local family owned dealership will let him spec out at MSRP. Any help with pictures of new colors really appreciated. He wants to order asap.

Any GM Metallic Red’s will follow in the line of other red tintcoats. All will be more of a Maroon, just varying shades. It will not be like Red Hot, better chance of it being something like Garnet Red or Wild Cherry or at worst Crystal Red Tintcoat from 2012-2015 Camaro’s. There’s some pictures if you search google of a 2023 Blazer in Radiant Red. It’s auto show pics and manufacturer pics. Auto show pics won’t give a great idea of the actual color because of all the lighting, the manufacturer pictures on a color like that will give you an idea of the color.

Radiant red is only shown on the 2023 Blazer so far. Sharkskin hasn’t been shown on any cars as of yet

I believe Radiant Red is the same as Red Mist on the 2023 C8.

I don’t think they’re the same, different touch up codes.

Dang, that Red Mist looks pretty good. I hope Radiant Red is at least close.

This looks like one of those colors that will change quite a bit based on the lighting.

Garnet red was indeed a very uniquely royal color...

As was Rally Green Metallic... I still very slightly regret not getting that single year color... It looks exceptional in a 1LE (with the black accents)...

Yeah, I think I saw one rally green Camaro in person and it was breathtaking. A tinge too dark in general, but when the sun was out, man, that was some sweet metallic color.
