Question Why is it...???

Why is it that a lot of people are looking to buy Hugger Orange Z28's/SS's??
I noticed a lot of people looking to buy or trade for one of these cars. Does anyone know why? Is it because of the rare color/amount produced??

Good to know!!! Just wondering because I was thinking about selling mine to buy a '69 PRO TOURING SS, either CHEVELLE or CAMARO. I wasn't even sure about selling it, and got something like 4 offers to buy it.
My SS is "babied" though. 14,500 miles on the clock with white leather interior, always garaged and NEVER out in the rain, wet pavement or snow.
Thanks for the info guys!!!!

They only built 375 hugger orange SS's. In 20 years, I'll probably kick my own *** for selling mine

Hugger Orange is the coolest color ever for a 4th gen Camaro. It's that simple, at least to me.

So tones2SS, are you actually thinking about selling yours? A4 or M6?

SOM is nice too, but that's not the color we're talking about. Sunset Orange Metallic is common compared to Hugger Orange.
