Although an old thread, i note that most of the cars of the royal household driven to the harry's wedding were in a color (similar) to black rose. With the red pinstripes, black tops and silver interiors, they looked very striking. my brother in law visited the BMW werkes in Munich last week and noticed they are offering a new (similar to) black rose paint option. So of course Chevy cancelled it after one year.

Never forget when a month was up I washed it carefully and waxed it (that is what we used in the day!) I drove to the gas station to fill up. Someone looked at the car and said, "Bet that looks great when you wax it!" Yep it never look bright-looked "muddy!"
About 2 years later I'd had enough and had it painted what I thought would be like the bright "Hugger Orange" Camaro. Looked great on the color chip. It was an inexpensive paint job. However it came out much brighter, I and others, called it "reflector vest orange"- it almost glowed!
It was under a tree and got sap spots! By this time had added 14 inch tires and low profile tires, headers etc. Found out that cheap paint can only be replaced by another cheap paint job, unless you want to strip it all off! Had it painted silver with cheap paint! Car looked great even years later when I sold it!
Of my 5 Vettes the Grand Sport in my first white car I have ever owned. Have had 2 reds, a 40th Anniversary purple (which like my Corvair never looked great to me) and my C6 yellow. Happy with the White and I get many positive comments.
Now lets see what will be offered for the C8!
