Default Hugger Orange

The new 5th gen needs to have Hugger Orange as an option.

That is all

GM would be foolish not to include that. Based on the heritage / retro design of the car itself, I think we can count on it and probably one or two other classics like Daytona Yellow, etc.

I hope its a opinion for one year maybe but I don't want to see it as a common color with a bunch of them running around. hell every one thinks my cars red any ways.

Yeah, I am really digging the idea of having a H.O. car. Actually I want it so bad that i would seriously consider having it repainted H.O. if it isn't an option when I buy which will '09 or '10. On top of that I plan on having black rally stripes . But like said already, having only a few H.O cars would be nice. Perhaps gm should only release a (very) small amount each year.

i agree about only offering it for one yr. or at least in limited numbers. but that could cause price gouging too which is BS.

Daytona Yellow and that dark green some 1st gens are painted would be cool options as well.

I know it is popular but orange is a hideous color to be on any part of any car.

have you seen a SOM firehawk? pure sex. the HOSS isnt far behind; and if they bring the camaro in an orange it will be hard to pass on. but if they do come with rally stripes for an optin i think they should be painted instead of vinyl.

If GM does a Hugger Orange Camaro then they can spray the new GTO with the same color and WA LA carousel red judge!
