Default Cyber Gray

When the C7 was unveiled most liked the Cyber Gray car. Now after a few months have purchasers drifted back to the lighter colors or are darker colors still the vogue.

I have no idea what is in vogue. The approach at this early stage is to show different sides of the car. The CG w/brown interior is the sophisticated/elegant touring GT side and the red is the hot street fighter side.

I'm always partial to black with polished wheels. Hard to keep clean, and requires more time in detail, but the end result is always well worth it.

one of the best color combos I've seen lately was space grey on a 335i coupe and a coral interior. Not for the faint of heart but looks awesome IMHO.

Well, there are only two colors making the rounds of the auto shows, but IMHO the Cyber Grey looks more sophisticated, which is pretty much what Harlan said was intended.

My wife likes Cyber Gray. I'm purchasing a convertible, definitely a black top with a matching black interior. I am wondering if a gray, black and black is to dull? Want the black top for durability, it will be cycling quite a bit. Interior; black holds up very well, but not mandatory.

This C6 cyber gray with red looks real good to me. The C7 red interior is a little different shade but should be just as appealing.

I really like the CG (currently own a CG vette) and I like the new tan interior. Trying to convince myself those two colors actually match - grey and brown.

Might lead me to NRB and tan, which would seem to match better.

Silver wheels should add some wow to the gray, black and black. There isn't a whole lot of interior choices. Red is a little loud for me.

I like the darker colors, because they contrast less with the black vents on the hood/fenders and the diffuser on the rear.
On the Chevy website, Night Race Blue looks pretty sweet.
