Does any one know why GM dropped Lime Rock green from the 2015 Corvette? Low volume? That's what I wanted. Now GM is bringing back Daytona Sunset Orange that was a one year color back in 2005.

Sad day about the green, although it will make mine a rare sighting.

And it's Daytona Sunrise Orange. Don't know how that is different from set, but I suspect it's lighter. I haven't seen a sample, yet--has anybody?

Here's a listing of 185 Lime Rock Green's using Cars.com.

Holy Crap, they want a lot for those! Granted, it looks like most of those are P.E.s, but still….

eta: the ones deep into the listings are not overpriced.

LRG was a single year color, sorry dude, snooze you lose

Replaced by ORANGE! Shark gray replaced Cyber Gray and yellow replaced yellow

I think it was totally lost in the sink hole.

Yeah I snoozed. I had just put $650 of new rubber on the front of the C6 last August and wanted some of my moneys worth of tire wear. Never thought LRG would be a one year color. The Corvette needed a new color. Shark gray doesn't do it for me. And you are right about the Orange being the exact same but orange is orange unless you put Atomic in it.

Want a really rare color? How about Rainforest Green... Uhhh...

BigJoe

must be rare for $90,650!!!


The last green (Dark Bowling Green Metallic) lasted only 2 years, 2000 and 2001, so I expected to see LRG in 2015 then be gone. But I don't worry, I got mine...

If you want green, perhaps there will a Transformers Edition:

It was dropped because only about 3% of all 2014 C7s were ordered in LRG. Can't blame GM for getting rid of a color that almost nobody wants.

Green Corvettes have historically not sold well, but I think they look great.
The LRG really pops in the sun.
Of course, I had an Elkhart Green 72 LT-1. In 1972 Elkhart Green was the #2 color. Go figure?

It appears that there are tons of LRG C7's sitting at smaller dealer lots. I've been doing searches on dealer inventories and these things are all over the place. If you wanted a 2014 LRG, you should find one easily.

Same reason they will drop the orange in 2016. The least purchased color gets the axe.

SFCA1968

are you sure about the orange?

AFVETTE

The only reason I jumped into a new C7 now was the announcement GM was dropping LRG. I even changed my announced retirement date so I could buy it.

I now have a year to pay it off so I can sail off into retirement.

they ran out of green rocks...

The BIG Chevy dealership in Charlotte has located a LRG coup almost like the on I would have ordered this Fall but they have to do a dealer trade to get it. Don't know what is involved with that. If it is still avalible by 7-12, I just may own one. Otherwise I'll go Yellow for
2015. Thanks for the info.

I was sure it would be a one year color. It is a lovely color. Not interested in orange, ever.
