    which camaro, the first one or the second one?

    mine's probably going to end up looking a lot like the first one, only without green/orange accents. oh, and a LOT of clear coat.

    the sails in this picture are B.E. UTIFUL.

    As my dad once said: "if we ALL liked the same thing, then we ALL would be trying to screw the same woman"! Do what you want...in the end if your not happy, what was it all for anyway?

    It is definitely not the paint scheme that is keeping the car from selling. If you have the $ to maintain and race a drag car like that, you have the $ to repaint it to whatever you want. I think the problem is that nobody has the $ in the first place.

    Good purple:


    Not so good purple:

    “The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.” -- Author Unknown

    I disagree. I beleive that people feel if they are going to drop that kind of coin on a car then it may as well look like they want it to. They could just watch Ebay and get the same car in a normal color scheme for the same price and not have to buy this thing and drop another $5000 on fixing the ugly paint.

    i could care less about looks when i buy a car. if that camaro was bright pink with a hello kitty picture on it but ran a 9.5 and i could afford it ill buy it. everyone could laugh all they want at the stop lights, i would be the one laughing when it lifts the front tires as the light turns green. plus paint is cheep so you could always get it repainted later.

    Im also not a fan of the maroonish red color 3s’s, but that color wouldn’t keep me from buying one.

    this sounds like precisely the thought behind the "wolly mammoth" of "pinks" fame.

    ...not to mention that if you ever put it in the wall (break an axle, etc) you'll have to get it repainted anyway.
