I like the new blue. Gives those of us who have silver and don't want one of the brighter colors a choice. I'm kind of tired of silver after 2 of them. The SSB looks like it would hide things almost as well as silver and for a daily driver, that's important to me.

Thanks for the pics!

Doesn't the exhaust on the white car look awfully close to the hood?

Something's up with the Z06. It has a dark color roof but a body color halo?

Inferno Orange on the Camaros looks red to me in most instances. That could be the "orange".

When will these Bozos realize that this puke orange color only appeals to drug induced "X" gens and come out with some real colors..????? By the way, the "X" gens and others buy "ricers" with fart can exhausts ! Get some better colors since most Vettes are purchased by old dudes..who have some taste.

I always loved Blue but SS Blue looks blaa. Maybe in person it looks good?

are you sure that blue isn't cyber gray? Just kidding... I like the brighter LMB, or even JSB over this one.

What do you mean that "could be" orange.

G.M. better start thinking about what younger folks will like, and buy, or the Corvette will soon be a goner.

Its part of the Z07 option package. They painted the carbon on the car black to reduce costs from the expensive clear coat that is needed for the carbon parts.
