Lime Rock Green Stingray
Here at Texas Motor Speedway and the 24th Lone Star Corvette Club Classic, GM built (last week) the new color, Lime Rock Green, and shipped it down for our weekend show. What a beautiful color on an awesome looking car!

Anybody that has seen Lime Rock Green in person. Is it as dark as it appears in the photos & videos? One shot of the hood w/dash panel at the NCM Bash appears lighter, but the Kalahri dash appears lighter also. I'm hoping to see this one at Bowling Green next week, but if these pictures are accurate, I may change my order to this before I go.

When I asked the posibility of seeing one when I'm in town for The Hot Rod Reunion next week, talon90 responded the one from Texas is part of the validation fleet, and it was very posible I could see it on the streets when I'm in town.

That looks right purty.
Hijacking the main topic for a moment, does that seat closeup feature a drawback of the suede inserts? It looks like there is a distinctive "fabric crush" where the nap of the suede has been pushed out of line with the rest of the seat. The detail-oriented folks are gonna go crazy leaning in and using a suede brush on the seat every time they get out of the car!

Green cars are beautiful, and no matter make or model, it won't make the cut past a couple of years---> too bad because this one is really nice.
Btw, I love BRG, esp on a Jag! Or how about racing green on a Lotus with the yellow stripe...Classic!
