Purple camaros?
Okay, so I've seen some pics of people with some sweet orange...yellow camaros... but what about purple ones? Anybody here got one? Here's some pics that I was able to find on google.
Not sure what I think.... I thought purple could be a pretty cool color for our cars, but none of these really do anything for me :/

Re: Purple camaros?
I can never get a decent picture of the color, but here's one of the better pictures I have of my purple RS.

Re: Purple camaros?
I wish my torque thrusts were bigger. I have 15x7s on the GTO that also fit on my 91, but I think they need to be at least 16s or 17s.

Mine was originally built red, but I had a complete color change to a flip-flop (purple to blue).....It was PURPLE in person, but the pics always came out looking blue.

Hey, this is my buddy's old 92' Camaro RS. It had just won a local car show at a Walgreens in Fairborn Ohio. It had a V6 and sounded better than any stock V8 I've ever heard in a Camaro. I miss this car, wish he'd never would of sold it.

Re: Purple camaros?
Nice purple beasts...here's mine.
Custom purple w/pink, blue, purple, white, grey and other pearls in the clear coat. The color changes depending on lighting - bright sun and she's the colors you see in the pic, no light and she's a dark bluish-purple.
She's getting a new paint job right now - something the shop says has never been seen before. Fortunately or unfortunately I'll just have to wait to see it before I know if I'll like it or not. :-/

Re: Purple camaros?
I've always wanted to see someone do a Iroc in purple, and put all the iroc decal's and striping on I think it would look killer. Purple with the silver iroc door decals, and silver striping mmmmmmmm

I LOVE the purple haze Camaros.
If everything goes right my red bird will be bright purple metallic like the 4th gen birds. Something like this:

Re: Purple camaros?
Not a Camaro, Firebird or F-Body. This is the same AS the BEAUTIFUL PURPLE, 1968, Huffy Rail , as the one I bought in 1968, when I was 12, using my "Paper Route" earnings. Always loved purple since. It is "The nicest example on the planet" based on my 1 year internet search, before buying it on Ebay, in 2022, from it's Original Owner!

Take a look at the attached. Sacred Purple from painting with pearl. This color is sexy from every angle.
