Every Color You Can Buy a Camaro in Every Year Since 1967

5/19/2025
Add Article To List

When the iconic Chevrolet Camaro first roared onto the American muscle car scene in 1966, it was built as a direct challenge to Ford’s wildly successful Mustang. Since then, six generations of Camaros have taken the roads by storm, sporting a blaze of color choices that have shifted with time. Speedway Motors is proud to present the ultimate guide to every color available for the Camaro since the very beginning. On the surface, it is pleasing to behold, especially for muscle car enthusiasts, but it also evokes deeper questions about society and consumerism. We have provided the complete list of Camaro color names below the article.

Why Aren’t Cars Colorful Anymore?

As you scroll through this infographic, you may notice that the number of color options for Camaros has declined over the years. Nowadays, the most popular car colors in America are white (25%), black (22%), gray (20%), and silver (14%). So why have cars lost their color? Following World War II, the United States enjoyed a golden era of consumption and style. This was reflected in the bold details that consumers craved for their vehicles. The streets bustled with chrome, two-tone trims, tail fins, curved windshields, and, of course, a cascade of cheerful colors. This prismatic parade continued well into the 1960s with the arrival of muscle cars. These beautiful beasts have always been more about performance than practicality, so it is no wonder that vivacious colors were used to make them stand out. During this time, the most popular Camaro colors were fiery reds, vivid greens, and even punchy purples.

Candy Colors Out, Earth Tones In

The oil crisis of the 1970s marked the end of America’s automobile extravaganza. High fuel prices, gas shortages, and emerging emissions regulations compelled Americans to choose more practical vehicles. Fuel efficiency became a priority while car color options took a backseat. Earth tones became popular choices, mirroring the origins of the environmental movement that began during this era.

Color Preferences Reflect Society and Culture

Volkswagen Senior Color and Trim Designer Jung Lim “Limmy” Park stated, “Color is always shifting, and our color perception is always evolving depending on what we see, what we observe and what we live with. Color preferences really reflect the unique social and cultural trends and even geography.” Economic uncertainty has been rising for the past few decades; people tend to gravitate towards simpler, more conservative choices during such times, a trend also exhibited during the Great Depression.

Technology Made Black and White Cool

Another factor that has influenced car color choices is our obsession with technology. Apple’s clean and white aesthetic is easily recognizable across the globe, influencing what society deems “cool” and “classy.” In the words of Sandy McGill, chief designer for BMW DesignWorks: “Prior to Apple, white was associated with things like refrigerators or the tiles in your bathroom. Apple made white valuable.”

What Does “Camaro” Mean?

Legend has it that during a 1960s multi-way phone call with reporters from across the United States, Chevy manager Pete Estes declared that a Camaro is a “small, vicious animal that eats Mustangs.” While Mustangs have mostly outsold Camaros throughout their rivalry, it is undeniable that Chevy Camaros have put up an epic fight.

Do They Still Make the Chevy Camaro?

After six generations of the legendary muscle car, Chevrolet announced that production of the Camaro would end in January 2024. To ensure a glorious send-off, Chevrolet offered a special Collector’s Edition for its final year. Limited to only 350 units, this premium package was crafted to honor the history, power, and aesthetic of Chevy’s long-time muscle car legacy. Here is a fun full-circle moment: the final Chevy Camaro comes in a unique Panther Black paint color (metallic or matte) — an homage to the original code name “Panther” during the development of the pony car. Rich Scheer, Chevrolet’s design director, stated: “We found it fitting for this Collector’s Edition Camaro to officially recognize the significance of the original code name and share it with Camaro enthusiasts. Of course, the name ‘Panther’ influenced the colors used, Panther Black Metallic for SS and Panther Matte Black for ZL1.”
