Camaro Shock and Steel Special Edition in Stain Grey Metallic
As GM Authority reported previously, the 2023 Camaro will be offered with two new exterior paint colors. One of these will in fact be Sharkskin Metallic, which arrives in place of Satin Steel Metallic (paint code G9K) while the other will be Radiant Red Tintcoat, replacing Wild Cherry Tintcoat (paint code GSK). The Chevy Camaro is expected to receive some other minor changes for the 2023MY, too, however full details on these changes have yet to come to light. GM Authority expects mild revisions in the way of available options and equipment.

Please tell me their will be a ZL1….
My 2022 ZL1 finally went to Code 3400 (specs input into computer) last week, so it’s scheduled to start the build by end of April. Sales person told me it could take a month to build. Then it’s off to Hennessey for 350 HP upgrade. I’m probably looking at early June for completion of upgrade (original order date 11/11/21). Give me patience Lord, but hurry!
Iv had a 2021 an a 2022 I received neither. The dealership ship said we will roll you’re order over to A 2023. I said no I’m over the Waite. I’m going for a scat pack.
I ordered my riverside blue in July/21…. jan /22,, my salesman calls me with a 22, close enough to my order…. looked at it and fell in luv… damn right I bought t.. worth the wait?? Yes! Best thing I bought after my original owner 76 vette.. go chevy!
Green must not be a color any more.
Chevy should have stayed with the ZL1 front end look. Everything sense then has been a disaster. How stupid is the design teams? Just listen to the enthusiast.
Received my 2022 2SS Camaro on January 30, 2022. I’ve only got 22 miles on it yet. Spring is in the air so it won’t be long before I’m out on the road. It’s a convertible , wild cherry tint with polished chrome wheels. Wisconsin roads were ready and willing to go.
My Camaro 2ss has been produced, but I haven’t seen a VIN #. When are VIN numbers assigned?
