Favorite factory color?

[ryanfx]

What's all of your favorite colors on fbodies painted from the factory?

I can't get over how good the Bright Purple Metallic looks, maybe it doesn't look as good in person, but man does it look on the computer =p

My personal favorites are black and pewter. And no; I'm not on the SOM bandwagon.

Any variation of copper or orange metallic. The early second gen Lime Green cars are cool. Blue w/white stripe early 2nd gen TAs. And black.

[Knipps]

Pewter/SOM

[BonzoHansen]

I will say that some colors might look good on some gens and not on others.

Also Silver looks great, esp 1st & 2nd gens.

[Batman]

Midnight Blue and SOM

I like SOM on ls1 SS's and WS.6's. some thirdgens look good with it too. I love arctic white on 87-90 GTA hardtops. Third gen camaro's look great in that medium metallic blue, I dont know the name of it, but Curt's car is that color. I also liked the light blue color my second gen was. Silver works on damn near any car. Black looks amazing, but it has to be kept clean.

[Teds89IROC]

SOM, black, arctic white on 3rd or 4th with dark tinted windows and quasar blue

[ar0ck]

Sebring Silver Metalic, SOM, Electric Blue (Vette) Steel Grey Metalic (Vette) & Torch Red (Vettes)

[enRo]

NBM, Pewter, and that odd gold color, I forget the name of it...

[Z28 Heritage]

Pewter...definitely!!!!!

[BigAls87Z28]

Red and most variations of red. There was a color that came on the first year of the C6...want to say lazer red or something like that...what a great color. New one, InfraRed that came on the XLR-V, that is a mighty fine looking red.

bright gold metallic... cool color i see a z28 on my way home from work everyday thats that color.... old guy driving it

[maroman88]

hmm wat about the factory yellow 93-94 trans ams. my fav third gen color is the metallic gray and then the quasar blue on 4th gen TA's. best vette color is nassau blue FTW!

[Untamed]

The Starlight Black / Sunburst Gold combo.

Can't go wrong with black and gold. :)

[Firehawk 526]

I had (2) 4th gens, 94 and 96 Bird Green metallic, but was discontinued in ??? 1997

Otherwise, I would have had (3). In todays' world, SOM, and still kicking myself for NOT EVEN considering it! Obviously, you know my first choice, aside from SOM (see avatar/sig)

[BlackBADaSS02]

Black is my favorite.

[1_Hot_SOM_WS6]

[Tru2Chevy]

I really like SOM, and the navy blue that came on the first gens.

Medium Maui Blue Metallic is my favorite 3rd gen color :)

[NJSPEEDER]

i like the darker blue metalics that GM is using now. navy blue mettalic and impulse blue metalic are best IMHO

[Brando56894]

wow ryan that color does look pretty sick, never saw it before... pretty much all the metalics look sick but my favorite are SOM, Midnight blue, and Bright Red

[GP99GT]

quasar blue is one of my favorites. theres also a blue ive seen on a trans am, not sure if its the same as quasar or not

[foff667]

mystic teal metallic :D

[WayFast84]

[Savage_Messiah]

[WildBillyT]

Tuxedo Black.

[baddest434]

pewter
SOM

[Mike]

superior blue metalic ftw.....oh wait wrong car
pewter ftw

[Ian]

I also like that pale yellow that came on some IROCs.

[ChickenLittle]

Black (of course), Pewter SS's (look great) SOM looks good, too

dark metallic blue SS's are nice looking too8-)

[Firebird67dude]

The original white that my 67 was was absolutely horrible. The yellow was pretty good on it but it wasnt the stock color.

[camarogirl57]

Polo Green w/ Tan of course!

[curt86iroc]

medium blue metallic!! (iroc)

pewter (zr2)

figures!!

[BigAls87Z28]

Ahem....Gulf Green FTMFW

[1972LT1]

Sequoia Green and Mulsanne Blue>all

[GreatSave9]

NBM would be the best if it didnt look purple in some light. But ya can't go wrong with a bright cherry red SS or WS6!

[LS1Hawk]

If I bought my car new, I most likely would have got it in SOM, but you can never go wrong with a red Trans Am. Navy Blue Metallic was nice, too.

[heavy_chevy29]

anything orange

[dan]

bright purple metallic..(98 only color) is my fav...followed by medium blue metallic ..(99 only color) is a close second..then it would go yellow, and then to SOM...black is classic and needs no ranking....
I HATE RED I HATE RED I HATE RED I HATE RED I HATE RED

[Brando56894]

why all the red hating?? :D it only looks good on firebirds/TAs though :lol:

[Jersey_TA]

I would absolutely kill for an SOM hawk

[jims69camaro]

1. hugger orange
2. hawaiian orchid/purple haze metallic
3. black (btw, those of you who know paint know that there are about 1000 shades of black...)
