Does anyone have pics of atomic orange vettes? I really want to see one with the competition grey wheels. I also hope that someone has a picture so that you can see the different interior colors against the orange.

Excellent photograph of a beautiful car. You have the sun's illumination angle perfectly placed. Nice work.

Does anyone have a picture of the grey/black interior in their AO? I think that it would be a killer combo.

Try and see this color in person. I've seen many great looking photos of AO on here and other sites and they look fantastic. I personally was disappointed when viewing in person on an overcast day. I think that color really needs the sunshine to make it pop.

That is a fantastic pic, I have a DSOM coupe and I've been thinking DSOM is a better color but that pic is making me rethink. They're both excellent colors in my opinion, probably the nicest color you can get on a Vette right now

Saw your post on my other note too, so hello my fellow atomic friend. I think our build dates will be pretty close since my dealer couldn't put the order in right away. Personally I'm going for chrome Z06 wheels and 2-tone interior (grey/black) but these all look great!

My wife probably thinks I've gone over the top too, because I'm planning to put red lights in the car's gills, so that it will leave a red "wash" on the sides of the car at night
