I'd take one in poo brown if it meant an LSA under the hood.

We need a factory camaro to run with the termies and gt500s.

They definately need another orange. Inferno Orange is a very light orange almost pastel looking. I would like to see the orange from the concept convt or Hugger Orange. I've seen IO on a Solstice, G8, and a Colorado and it just didn't look right on any of them.

Seen the Solstice orange in person a few times already. It is definitely closer to red than orange. You barely see the orange flakes in direct sunlight.

I created a poll in camaro5 that pits IOM vs Hugger Orange. If any of you want to voice your opinion here it is below.

Hugger orange with a LSA motor and I will sell everything I own to buy one now. No hugger or LSA and I will wait until I can put a large sum down about 2 years from now (hopefully we will still have the car in production).

Inferno orange is not even close to sunset orange. Sunset orange still looks orange, not red. If this Camaro were offered in sunset orange, I'd have ordered mine that color.

Your eyes are broken. See that photo of the inferno orange Camaro? See the dude bending over next to it? His shirt is hugger orange. Use that as a reference, the Camaro looks red. I know my oranges, I've owned several orange cars and have also seen the Inferno RED Orange in person. It looks red with a hint of orange. Compare these popular oranges:

Sunset Orange Metallic:



1969 Hugger Orange:



1999 Hugger Orange (is slightly less red than 1969 Hugger)



Brazen Orange Metallic:



Inferno Orange. Orange what?

Do not think the 5th gen would pull Hugger Orange off, I think it would look seriously wrong.

I think the 69 Hugger Orange would look just fine on the 10 Camaro.

I agree 100%.

IOM does not look that red in person. In direct sunlight it has a red hue, but with over cast it looks very pale. Almost like a pastel or a puce. It pretty much looks like puke. I'm not by any means saying it is a good color but it is more orange than Brazen OM on the GTO. SOM would have been nice, even Atomic. I'm disappointed by the orange and red on this car, that's why I chose black which was my third choice. Firehorn > Victory, Atomic > Inferno.

When it was originally going To be a 2009 car the hugger orange might have been a option. As a 10 car I think the chances are slim unless they break tradition with years. I'd love to have one to park beside my 99HOSS.


Quick Reply: Camaro in hugger orange should be offered!!! VOTE!!!
