I wish someone would do one and post it, so I could have a cool screen shot to hold me until I can get mine!

I also thought dark chrome wheels would be great on a silver C7.

It is tough to choose the best color in the C7

I have seen all the colors of the C7 in person. It seems like I select my favorite color and then I run into another that looks better. I don't remember ever getting past sports cars that look so good in every color available. Wow, the silver with red accents is stunning.
Great cars on this post. Thanks for sharing.

I owned an 08 C6 in Silver Blade and the car didn't stand out because there wasn't enough contrast to bring out the bling in the color. C7's black hood vent, side coves, rear quarter window treatment and rear glass give it the touch it needs. Silver is a timeless color. It will looks awesome years from now as it does now.

Initially wanted the white, but the wife suggested the silver. Both looks great with red brakes and red interior. Now I'm leaning toward silver for the new Z06. Great contrast with all the dark air vents and carbon fiber aero trimming. Funny how no one mentioned that silver is the easiest to cosmetically maintain, definitely a big plus!

Very nice!

Is that the standard tire for the non-Z51? Or bigger?

Those are Z51 size but the offset does not work. Another set with the correct offset is being made to replace them.

How is it that some of these C7's have the rear spoiler and some don't? Is there a spoiler delete option when ordering? I personally like it with out.

The rear spoiler comes with the Z51 package.
