Pink and Camaro are two words that should never be used in the same sentence, much less as a car color.

but imagine what you would feel like if someone had a pink f-body and smoked the sh$t out of you, might be up there with losing to some ricer.

I personally would still think it looks dumb, and I like bright flameboyant colors, hence my car.
I think a more respectable alternative would be either white or black with pink accenting on the car.

Someone here posted some pics of a hot pink Camaro, I think it was photochopped(photoshopped?) but dang it didn't look bad at all...

I of COURSE wouldn't paint my car pink, let alone HOT pink, but hey, to each his/her/its own.

Black is my favorite color.
