Want yellow? I'm hoping it's not a shock
 
GM has a new "yellowish" color out on 2019 Camaro and Bolt. Formally called "Shock"

Not a fan based on what I've seen so far and hoping this does NOT make it's way to the C8.

Looks green to me.

The C5 had a really nice yellow, great warm yellow color that "pops". I hate the shade of yellow that makes even new cars look faded/dull, which is surprisingly common.

I like the Camaro shade ( lighting) Sebring Orange is my favourite now....Id love a nice shade of green or melon.

That shock color is an abomination.

I'm not a yellow fan at all but this is a pretty nice look.

I agree; I saw that color on a car the other day and it is striking.

2019 Camaro press release 2018-10-16
 
The release calls it yellow, although most of us seem to be seeing a greenish yellow or a yellowish green.


Chevrolet today previewed a new Shock yellow exterior color for the 2019 Camaro. It will be available in early 2019.

Still pissed this never became a reality!

Not a fan of yellow cars. But bright green can be fun!

I'm just hoping GM will go out of the norm a bit and offer some colors that are fresh. Have the standard ones but have some additional more youthful options also. That being said, I'm pulling for White Diamond Tri-coat to finally be available. Lol, I'm really pushing it with that choice I know. HA

The best yellow GM ever made was velocity yellow.

I agree 100% and have said the same thing in the past. I just think that "Shock" might not be a good addition based on the images so far. Maybe it's a color you have to see.

I have NO photoshop skills but wish someone that does would photoshop the "ring car' in Verde Ithica...that color is sooo unique.

Millenium yellow is a pretty awesome color too! :rock:

Trackaholic 10-17-2018 07:57 PM

My Mustang is a flat yellow that looks pretty good (IMHO), but I'd prefer a yellow with either a pearl or metallic look.

I would also like a nice green or deep red, or a bright blue.

I actually like many of the C7 colors, but definitely a bold color over a silver, white, or black (they all look good too, but I like something that stands out a bit - keeps the other drivers on their toes).
