SSB is my favorite of all colors ever to be offered on a Corvette. Part of me hopes it comes back; another part of me prays it doesn't!

2 years- 15 and 16. This makes 8 total colors gone in 3 model years, but we get 4 new colors announced in a couple weeks at the Bash.

Since Laguna Blue is going away, I can envision Steel Blue from the mid 70s coming in as the lighter shade of blue (JSB is still too mew to repeat as a color). I have no idea what GM could replace Shark Grey with that has the Silver/Grey tone.

ok..call Me old school...back to paint ...how about bringing back a couple classics from the 60's ..Honduras Maroon and Fawn Beige...with fawn or saddle interiors and tops..!
