One of the Camaro's most compelling traits is its adaptability. From a sporty grocery getter for young singles to a face-torquing track rat, to a big-wheeled urban cruiser, GM's ponycar occupies a special place in American custom-car and motorsport culture. So it only makes sense that GM would show off what new owners can do with their sixth-generation Mustang-fighter without ever leaving the comfort of their local dealership. The result? A pair of Camaros, one creatively named "Camaro SS Red Accent Package concept" while the other shares the equally descriptive moniker "Camaro SS Black Accent Package concept."
-The Switchblade Silver Metallic Red Accent SS convertible features an Adrenaline Red interior, an interior illumination kit with red aluminum door inserts, red fender hashmarks, black bowtie emblems, and 20-inch five-spoke gloss black wheels with a red outline stripe. A red-accented engine cover, SS-logo floor mats and center-console cover, as well as sport pedal covers and red knee pads to round out the treatment. Available Brembo brakes provide the stopping power.
-In its infinite wisdom, Chevy deems the Red Accent car "tasteful-yet-dynamic," suggesting that the Black Accent car—an SS coupe wearing Red Hot paint—features more of a "tuner" aesthetic. We can't say we argue with them on the latter point. Satin-black rally stripes run from front to back, paired with 20-inch five-spoke low-gloss black wheels, black bowties, black ground effects, and a (concept) black fuel door. The car is dropped a bit courtesy of the performance lowering kit, and like the Red Accent, the black car does its stopping courtesy of Brembo.
-The leather-trimmed interior features much black, and like the Red Accent, features sport pedal covers and SS-logo floor mats. The suede console lid wears red stitching and displays a Chevrolet Performance logo.

These two cars, of course, are the mere first drops of a coming custom-sixth-gen-Camaro deluge as the cars make their way into the hands of the public. Some will undoubtedly be amazing. Some will engender giggles and/or disgust. Regardless, they're coming. Gird your loins, et cetera. Steel yourself, Peter Cetera.
