Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. I think that would be enough to convert me from VY

I don't think I would even change the wheels.

Nice!

It looks darker in those pics than in previous ones. Any thoughts as to which is correct? Are these pics color balanced/corrected?

Now if GM would only do something about that rear lower valance......

The new color looks really good.

An all-new color for an all-new car is a great choice.

The bright vibrant colors look a lot better than the normal darker greyish depressing GM colors.

Really good pics! Thanks.
Love how LB enhances the body lines of the C7.
If you ordered LB, you will be happy with your choice.

Great pics...I do think these look they've had their color saturation and/or contrast ramped up a bit. The starburst in the mirror also looks like it may have been a product of PhotoShop. Great pics nonetheless.

The silver painted Fork wheels look good on the car also.

I know a lot of people like the chrome or polished, but the silver painted looks good also.

Only thing that doesn't look good is the stick-on logo for the race. You'd think they'd be able to have one printed so it would fit the door better. My god though does that blue look awesome. Every picture and video I've seen makes it look a slightly different color but they always look great (never purple, never teal, never too light, never too dark).

I agree.. the silver painted option on the C7 almost look more machined or satin colored than previous Vette painted silver wheels. Maybe it's the pictures but they every pic I have seen seems to support this. Can't wait to see them in person.

Love blue, thought about it for a second since this is the best blue since LMB on the C6 but I don't want two blue Corvettes!
