ABM looks much better than I thought it would. One of the Blue's will be available on the SS, but it hasn't been released which one.

As an SS with white racing stripes that would be fine.

If that is indeed the aqua blue that chevy shows on the camaro's website, it looks three zillion times better in an actual picture. They should stop trying to photoshop the car colors and just take a few pictures.

Throw a nice fat silver stripe down the center, with super-thin red stripes on either side of the fat stripe and you're in the money!

Man, I hope GM survives, manufactures this car and sticks around long enough to work out the kinks. I want one!

You want an internet link for a source because that would be more believable than the internet you're reading now?

The source of this information is the Camaro Product Manager, Cheryl Pilcher.

I don't think the order system is updated to show this yet, but it will happen this month.

That street is too small to be M1 or M24 - no median either.

To this Detroiter it looks like 12 or 14 mile in the Royal Oak / Birmingham area - very cool though!

According to Fbodfather, the system will be updated to allow ordering Blue SS, and polished wheels on the RS sometime after Thanksgiving.

ABM looks really good on the Camaro. Looks similar to the Light Blue that was available in '98 on the F-Body.

I just hope it does.

I'm going to the LA Auto Show this weekend so I can see it in person, cause I have my doubts it'll ever hit the streets...
