Like it or not, the name is very appropriate... It is a dead ringer for sharkskin. Saw it at a Harrisburg Chevy dealer last week. That said I like the color - but perhaps too subtle for the likes of a corvette.

Saw several shark grays in recent visit to the NCM and assembly plant. I like the way it looks. It is a happy medium between cyber gray and blade silver. Looked particularly good when paired with the machined face black wheels.

I still need to see one in person. I had a Cyber Gray C7 and loved the color, I saw pictures of TSG for 15 and ordered a TR one instead.
From the pics I think it's too light for my taste.

The local dealer here has a coupe in Shark Gray. Saw it the other day and liked it a lot. Combine it with a red interior, and the car is stunning.

Well, I have a Shark Gray 2015 Stingray (black wheels, mirrors, spoiler) and I love the color.
I don't love it quite enough to order it on the Z06, for which I am going back to Blade Silver, but it is a very classy color. My only criticism is that it dulls out considerably in low light. In sunlight it is a striking metallic, under clouds a little dull. I decided I wanted a bit more contrast with all the carbon flash bits. But it was a very close decision and I would have been happy with a second consecutive Shark Gray car.

True, got to see it during the Anniversay in Bowling Green, nice new color
