Many of the colors that are used on the Corvette are also used on other vehicles through out the GM products of that model year. Corvette Marketing comes up with color names that are Corvette specific, even the the paint color is used elsewhere.
Take a look on this web site - click here and you'll see that Lt. Tarnished Silver is the official name of the color, but not the marketing name of the color.
