Aqua Blue Camaro

Does anyone know if GM quite making the new Camaro in aqua blue metallic? I've seen them before, and I just LOVE them in that color, but I don't see it listed anymore on the chevrolet website.

It'd be a shame if they dropped that color.... That'd probably cause the switch I'd make to a Mustang when I go to buy one of the two...

Looks like I found my answer...

So much for me getting one of these as a convertible.

Sorry GM...you screwed up again in my eyes. First it was the SOM. I would have bought a BRAND NEW HHR if you still made that. Now this?

Looks like I'll be getting a Mustang when my HHR is paid off...unless you make another color just as good, but as I bet...you'll only be offering plain bland colors. Nothing that stands out and fits my personality.

If you get a Mustang, wait for the '11 models to come out next summer/fall !! The engine choices are 'sposed to be better !

Buy a used one or wait and see what the new colors will be.

FWIW, you'll find what you want. My Lime Mustang is one of only 68 made that year with its color combo.

Well sadly enough I'll never get the Camaro I wanted, since I wanted an ABM convertible.... But chances are whatever I do buy will have to be used....new are pretty pricey, but even one or two year old convertibles are pretty reasonable. I was going to buy a gray Mustang, but insurance was too much.

That's strange. The insurance on my Mustang is about $200 a year less than my HHR was. I agree about the convertible, though. I was going to buy a new Camaro 'vert in late '10, but when they announced the push to mid-year '12 that was it for me. I may get one in the future, we'll see how the whole muscle-car economy holds out over the next few years.

yeah being young will go that. Doesn't help that you are in michigan... We get both of our cars for about half of one car in michigan...ridiculous

might just be me, but i am not a fan of the mustangs as a convertible. Top up they are ok, but top down, they just seem a bit more plain, too straight sided. Hard to explain and just a personal preference. Would love having/riding a convertible, but love the look of the coupe a lot more.
