Is this too much orange? If I can afford it...

2010 Inferno Orange Metallic Camaro with Inferno orange interior including orange ambient lighting plus I plan on having the bowties (front, back) painted to match the body color.

Can you get Orange neon lights under the car for night crusing?

If you guys would kindly leave, I need a few minutes alone in this thread.

Thank you.

Actually, the orange is more of a reddish orange but if you notice -- it changes color in different lighting. If you have seen an orange Solstice, it is the same color. I have not seen it in person but everyone is just blown away when seeing the color in person. I'm hoping to find a dealership that has both of my interior and exterior preferences. My only real hesitancy is the orange seats. A lot of pictures make the orange look pinkish orange. Talk about a chameleon color... how about this picture? It does look Texas orange and this IS the Inferno Orange Metallic color. I think guy said he took the picture at dusk.

That is a sweet ride!!!! And, you can never have enough orange. I would put that in thick bullet proof glass with heat sensors so if anyone drooled or breathed too hard alarms would sound off:D

I am jealous!

No racing stripes nor ground effects as shown in picture one. Just orange and lots of it.

I wonder if you could get the clunker deal if you traded this in.

Money and timing. It's probably more about timing than anything. I'm hoping to buy one June or July of next year but the wait is killing me. I love this car!

So what's your suggestion for a vanity license plate for this car? And is there someplace I can look and see what is already taken for Oklahoma? Here are a few ideas or I could just get an OSU license place.

INFERNO
IAM IOM - color is Inferno Orange Metallic
HAD2GIT
U WISH
CYA L8R
OSU FAN - I'm sure this is not available.

FalseGod
08-27-2009, 01:37 PM
I like INFERNO of all those you listed.

Wonder if OPOWER or O POWER is available? Those would be good.

I love HAD2GIT! I sat in a black, leather, hard-loaded, V-8, 6 speed last week! I still like and still want, but in orange of course! This will be my mid-life crisis car LOL!

Sometimes if you're extra nice to the lovely ladies who work at the tag agency they will look them up for you. Make sure you go when it is slow!

I'm going to call it my mid-life crisis car but I doubt I live to 106.

Chevrolet is working out some of the kinks in the new 2010 Camaro. I guess there is a blind spot and so they will be adding backup sensors as an option with all models made after August 31st. There is talk also of making the passenger front seat adjustible height-wise (driver's seat is a power seat with memory) but it is just talk right now.

Only eight months to go until I have mine...

Yeah, the blindspot is horrible. So bad, it would keep me from getting one. As it is, I won't be getting one anytime soon. Just paid off my current vehicle (which IS orange), one more year on hubby's truck and then my son turns 16! Hubby also says there is a 3-letter word for me that comes into play





J-O-B for all you sickos :rolleyes:

Well, my enthusiasm for this car has been tempered after seeing it. The color is reddish orange. My wife and I pulled up to one that was parked at Bob Howard Chevrolet and she asked, "Is that it? It looks red." I agreed and after taking off my shades it looked a little orangier but not that much. I'm even wondering how the orange leather and interior trim looks matched with the exterior darker orange. I don't know now.

You can always buy it and then have Annie paint it the right shade of orange!

I saw one driving down 35 this weekend and agree, definitely not OSU orange. It looks like tomato orange or something. It was lighter when the light hit it right, but that won't do. I think that you would be better off getting the Orange challenger, which is more of a General Lee orange, which matches up much better with our school colors.

But those are ugly. I may just order a black Camaro and get the orange interior.

Hmm, I think they're pretty sexy. I like the simplicity of them. I see them driving around Austin a lot lately and they always look nice.

OSUFan

Actually, it doesn't look that bad. Just a reflex after being o the Chevrolet boards for so long. ;)

They call the color HEMI Orange. It doesn't look much different from the Inferno Orange Metallic, at least in this picture.

I've seen both in person, and I believe the Dodge Orange to be much closer to OSU's orange than the Chevy.
