Wow, nobody has mentioned tan(or beige, whatever it's called).

My 84 Z28 came in tan with gold GFX. Have only ever seen one other with this color. Even on the boards here.

My '85 S/C was silver, then someone painted it red after my friend sold it, then I bought it, now its used for parts for my IROC lol. Never seen an original Silver Camaro, if you look you can see a lot of spots where the red is flaking and u can see the silver under it.

Well I don't have the "Camaro White Book" infront of me. Better known as the thridgen bible, but as I recall the rarest color from the factory was the garnet red. Followed by maybe the purple haze. After that I don't remember. That's for 91's and 92's anyway.

Mine is a cross between medium blue and purple. A buddy of mine nixed the paint while have a few......and a few more. The car looks great but he didn't mix any extra paint. SO I can't touch up the car and HE can't remember how he mixed it. I call the colour "drunkin' blue".

Thank you. Yes, that's my car. The editor of that section, John Neslon, has an 84 Camaro (it's getting paint in this month's issue), so I had a leg up .

That orange and the silver are beautiful! I've never seen either in person. I did see a silver one on ebay. I almost wish I'd waited and bought that. (It was a better deal and it was within driving distance ) Mine was originally Bright Red, but it was repainted Torch Red. Sorry for the large image. I was too lazy to resize.

Where I live I've only seen one thirdgen, and it was bright red. (thank god mines been repainted! ) And from what I could tell, the owner drives it in the winter. I was coming up to a street light a few weeks ago and saw it parked in front of the part store. I was so surprised to see it I started drifting towards the other lane.

Sorry for the double post.. I hit stop instead of just re-editing my last post when I wanted to add more, so I'll just post another pic to make it all worth while.

I have to fix the passenger side gfx or buy a new one, as shown in the picture. That was the fault of the guy I bought it from, who decided after I got the car he didnt want to replace the piece, because of some paperwork issues that were his fault. How's that for irony..

I forgot there was one other thirdgen in my area that was interesting. It's a 2 tone blue and silver. Doesn't look like he quite finished the restoration, but the color combo isn't too bad. I haven't seen the car in person, just when I stumbled across his Myspace page because the car was the main photo.
Hope he doesn't mind me posting the pic.

Pizza_guy my '83 Z28 is the same color combo as yours.It's Code 59 Beige and was only available in '83 (4,388) and '84 (16,120).Those numbers are from the "Camaro Whitebook" and is for total beige Camaros.I've only seen 2 other beige Camaros in person but I've seen a few for sale online.

I see a 3rd gen occassionally around where I live.And of them mostly are red,teal,blue and white.

I have actually seen an original yellow iroc around town also. ive had a maroon car, a yellow one that under the carpet was maroon but the title said it was supposed to be silver and i have my lovely red IROC now. Thats all i got now.

Re: Common Camaro Colors, and not so common!

The most common that I have seen is the bright red or I think they call it victory red. Dont see very many thirdgens in my area anymore. I've only seen a few that is my color on my iroc which is the darker red. I think its called crimson red metallic. Here's pics of an 88 camaro sport coupe I owned in 1995 to 1996 before I traded it in for my iroc. Its orange or bronze color with silver gfx's. Never seen another with this color. Only good pics I have since digital cameras was too expensive buy at that time.

Re: Common Camaro Colors, and not so common!

When discussing not so common colors, my old man's "yelloz" comes to mind. The oddball factor made it grow on me.. and its lack of an awful interior color (red comes to mind) didn't hurt either.

Here's my Lear Blue 91Z28 in the staging lanes at Ohio Valley Raceway. All the other ones in my area are either beat up or *******ed out with spraypaint and different color body parts.

It's either a 2.5 or a 3 inch harwood fiberglass cowl hood. I can't remember the height exactly.

Re: Common Camaro Colors, and not so common!

I see 2 3rdgens everyday on my way to work.They are the same 2.One of them is parked in a used car lot, its purple.The other is a red daily driver that is owned by some kid that works at the oil station.
There is 1 gorgeous 3rd gen I have had the honor to drool at on my way to work this week.He is getting some engine work done or something as he is parked outside a speed shop.Its bright yellow with black stripes.Its a kick azz looking car.

Well, if you don't see them in your area anymore that must be because 70% of them are in my area. The nice ones on the other hand are becoming more rare

Re: Common Camaro Colors, and not so common!

I suppose my silver Trans Am has a rare color then? I'm almost 100% positive it's the stock color unless the previous owner went through the trouble to paint under the carpet and inside the doors too. lol. Of course the metal flake in the paint was added later.

I'm in dire need of some new pictures.

Re: Common Camaro Colors, and not so common!

I agree with most of you. Find a real silver one and keep it. Pretty rare. I have a red/orange metallic with tan interior. Looks sweet. All orig. found a 92 Z thats Purple Haze. Not sure If I can see myself driving a purple care. think the Gold trim package Helps on most colors.
