BTW, my C5 is spiral gray.

I would love for GM to bring back Medium Spiral Gray, however so far, the C7 is offered in Cyber Gray. Not sure if it's the same Cyber Gray as the C6, but it's a little darker than our Medium Spiral Gray C5s.

I like them all. Everytime I see a vette, I have to take a quick look. The new one however needs to grow on me. Need to see one in person. Our auto show is coming in Feb and I'll see one then.

I have to say I love my C5, always loved my C3 and the C7 is starting to grow on me!

I think Chevy did a great job keeping the legend moving forward , might be a bit too radical a change in some of the sharp lines for a few folks , but at least they kept it moving forward!

Love my Vette!
