I'm looking to either change the color of my car or keep it same. I'd like your opinion. Should I keep it gunmetal grey? Change it to black or change it to blue?

Its hard when you put my top 3 colors all in one poll. I like black the most, but if I had a gunmetal grey thirdgen, I'd probably keep it that color.

I say refresh the gunmetal and either add some flake or some pearl to change it up. This is also cheaper since you won't have to get it jambed.

I say stay gunmetal, it's all up to what your preference is, but ho many black camaro's do you see? Not to say it's a bad color, I have a black camaro. Gunmetal is a great color and I like the way it shows off the lines of the car.
