Does camo absorb a lot of heat under the hot sun during summer?
I have a navy blue car now and it's pretty bad.
I would prefer a color that will let me stay COOL all the time.

It wasn't too bad this past summer. My windows are tinted, I used a shade for the windshield, and cracked the windows and it was just a little hotter than standing outside of it. It's sooooooooooo much better than black.

IMO I love my camo box, but the first thing i noticed after bringing it home was that it attracts so much dust If i could do it all over again i would probley go poler white.
If you are woried about it getting dusty, dirty after washing it, go to your local parts store and pick up a california car duster It realy helps

True dat. I was deciding between TCM, BOP, or waiting for the 2nd release series, but those pix of Camo look good! Now leaning to Camo if I can't hold out til Mar/Apr.

yeah i have camo green and its the way to go.. it stays pretty clean and looks realy nice at night too... you can match it up with almost any part or decal and it looks amazing.. i had trouble deciding too but when i got my camo i loved it.. plus it is the least popular color, everyone else has the other colors like mad.. get the more rare and best looking color.. camo green!

My Camo xB's body stays looking remarkably clean and I haven't washed it in three weeks. It's even been raining here pretty often.

The windows, on the other hand, are pretty dirty.

I own a camo as well. I love the color.
These pics are from nopi earlier this year. You can sorta get an idea what it looks like at different times of the day and night.

Took some new pics of mine today, it was a clear sunny day and you can see in the one pic it looks completly gray. The camo is only green when there is direct light hittng it! The pics are in my gallery just click on my profile.

Sweet Camo xB. I wonder if the flames are from a kit or done at a shop?
