New Colors??

Will we see some new colors with upcoming refresh or model years? Would love to see some purple, orange or even bring back another green maybe not krypton green but something a bit darker kinda like a green version of hyper blue or garnet red would be the best description I could give.

I've been saying for awhile that British Racing Green or Emerald Green Metallic would look great on the 6th gen.

I'd have to look but I think I saw a chip that had what is supposed to be a new version of Inferno Orange metallic. But, I'm pretty sure I saw that related to the Corvette platform

I would have to agree with the Emerald green. Its the color I wanted, didn't have so ended up with black again. Nice color but hard to keep clean.

Always liked Fathom Green from the first gen cars myself. The latest green on the C7 Corvettes was a good attempt, but I felt something was just not quite right about it.

Poison ivy green would look absolutely stunning on this car I'd say

Agree on the Orange. The Tan/Pewter worked on the Trans Ams, but not Camaros in my opinion.

The only Orange we've always needed is Hugger Orange.

Keep the name and all.

As much as I liked hugger orange, I think sunset orange metallic offered on the 4th gen was even better. If they had offered that (SOM) this year, I probably would have picked it over hyper blue.

forgot about that one... but Hugger is iconic like Dodge bringing back Plumb Crazy and calling it Plumb Crazy. I couldn't tell you the name of most other Camaro colors including the 4th Gen one.
