For the people who ordered the classiest of colors, and all the different color combos.

I'll start. Got Black, Red 2lt Interior, and somewhat controversial yellow calipers with black z51 wheels.

















Post up pictures of yours and your different color combos!

Moments like these help balance the misery of owning a black vette!

I got it tinted today. 35% of the front sides, 42% on the little back windows, and nothing on the rear window.





Looks like the batmobile. Not sure how I feel about it.

Beautiful. Mine is not here yet - VIN 106, black on black with black wheels, glass top, black calipers. Will be tinting windows, smoking lights, and darkening the badges or de-badge.

Make sure to post some pictures up of it. I know every other forum usually has a thread for each color and or combination. If the MODs could sticky this, it would prevent 10000x of each showing up. Keep it one spot.

Yep, built 8/27 or 8/28 and still don't have it. By the time I get it, I'll be almost ready to trade it in. Crazy.....

Trust me, you don't need to see out the back window glass. Could you please tint it for us, your buddies on CF? Also, go as dark as possible.

My order went to 3300 status back in the 2nd week of July, then went backwards to 3000, and has done this 3 times. Now currently @ 3000 again in Oct. At this point I am willing to take a different color combo just to get a car... As long as its a manual and z51...
