Re: What is your favorite colour combo.

I have a dark green/tan interior combo. But if would have had alot more money, I would have went with a burnt orange color. I love that color on a Third Gen

Re: What is your favorite colour combo.

Notchback GTA's and '89 Turbo T/A's got those rear seats.

As for me, I really like flame red mettallic with beechwood interior. I may be a bit biased though...

I like the beachwood interior too BUT its a pain to keep clean. IMO a dark grey interior with black carpet is the best.

Re: What is your favorite colour combo.

I always thought it would be cool to have a black car with a red interior.. but it'd have to be a really high quality red. Not that orange stuff. Definitely not gonna happen in a thirdgen.

Ew, you mean that tiled looking "Camaro" in orange all over the interior? That is gross. What was GM thinking there? (If that is factory interior)

I personally don't like the maroon interior that came with some white Camaros. Just...no.

Lol the factory red interiors in these cars are notorious for fading into an ugly orange.

But actually if you're talking about the Lier Siegler CAMARO CAMARO CAMARO interior, I'd LOVE one of those. It's very tacky, but it's just very 80s. It suits these cars. It's like those 70s Z28s with the goofy disco colors.



A bit goofy, but pretty neat to have on those cars.

This is the Camaro Camaro Camaro interior, some of them look really cool, they're pretty hard to find and even teh fabric they used costs big money new old stock:

Read about it here: https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/hist...conteur-1.html

I'd LOVE to have one of these in my car, the gray one that would look really cool in most of our cars today, I think.

This would be my favorite color combo too! Too bad the later T/A's didn't use two tones anymore.
I also prefer the 82-83 Trans am ground effects flares under the front fenders and before the rear wheel openings.

Not a Thirdgen but nonetheless one of my favorite color scheme's. Once my body work is done I will be replicating the two tone of the yellow and black on my bird. (with just a couple alterations)
