Deal with it or wait for the Alpha platform.
You are soooo funny!

Deal with the Aqua Blue and stop bitching about it!

There is as much likelihood of changing the color palette and this point, as there is losing 500 pounds.

DEAL WITH IT! Or go buy a Mustang.....



Ooooh, that felt good.

Uh....no. I don't WANT a Mustang. I want the new Camaro. The big fat pig that it is. Maybe you should heed your own advise and get a Mustang yourself if you are soooooooo concerned about weight. Or better yet, get a Solstice or Sky and drop in the LS3. They weigh LESS than 3,000 lbs. AND they come in a hideous blue too.

Hey, at least we can paint the new Camaro and be completely happy with it. What are you going to do? Strip it down to shave weight?

I see that you have not yet been completely assimilated into the collective. Resistance is futile. I want you ----RIGHT NOW---to pick up your pom-poms and give us a big cheer for Aqua Blue.

If you don't, then you're not a Camaro enthusiast and you should go buy a Mustang.

Electron Blue is one of the best color blues GM ever used on a vehicle, I don't care if it was on a vette or not, the color is awesome. I would like it on my 4,000lb Z28.

Well the good thing about color choices is they change year to year, unfortunately for you the weight isn't, if anything it will only gain weight during it's life cycle.

Lifecycle? You've got to be kidding me. Don't hold your breathe for any changes. It is what it is - colors and all. Maybe the next gen will get a new shade of blue for you....

Perhaps we should just start referring to the Camaro's weight in "stone". Does 271 stone sound lighter?

You Stole My Idea!!

Actually, I want a Berlinetta.....I drove a boatload of them between 1979-1986, I liked them. I'm just gonna get a couple of '86 Berlinetta emblems (gosh I hope Chevy/GM still has them...maybe I should buy them now)
and carefully apply them to my 2011 Camaro. I'll need one for the dashboard, too - so I'll believe it's a Berlinetta while I'm driving it... works for me.

There will be a Z-28......Just not until 2011 or 2012, or whenever GM/Chevy plans on releasing it. I am just so glad they brought this car back. My gosh, a Camaro with the little trunk again, 4 wheel disc brakes, independent suspension, dual exhausts, a SIX speed automatic

I'll bet dollars to donuts that if we get a Republican congress again soon you'll see the Z28 a heck of lot sooner.
