This one was displayed by Chevrolet at Bloomington...the black wheels/yellow stripe w/yellow calipers really looked sharp on this Z06.

NightFall Gray is the WGG color on a Camaro. My build sheet called mine Gun Gray, color code G7Q.

These Picts are great examples of why I like this color. Had I not purchased a Long Beach red 2016 early in the model year this now would be my no. 1 choice. Thanks for sharing.

Just got this yesterday! For me it came down to WGG and the Arctic White. The Gray just pops. It reflects the light so much better. It looks like a beast. I absolutely love it!

I was sold on the Arctic White for months before I saw the Watkins Glen Grey at a local dealer. I've never regretted my purchase. Love the grey! Great purchase!

Your Vette is OUTSTANDING! Of course, since mine looks nearly the same, I guess I'm also complimenting myself.

I agree 100% about this color. I get a lot of compliments about mine and they almost always mention the color. Received two compliments from total strangers just yesterday.

My same story. Actually changed my order from AW to WGG right after January 1st.

Congrats to you and OP on your new Vette in a great color.

I also was thinking WGG or AW, liked the dark gray on my Charger and so chose the similar WGG.

I'm not trying to say anything negative about Chargers, but the WGG looks WAAAAY better than the gray on that Charger, imo.

Heh-heh. When you have them next to each other it looks like there is a lot of brown in the Charger color. On the other hand: all wheel drive for my winter commute on I-69.

It will be nice when they get that widening project on I-69 done, yes?

In person these look really good. In the sunlight they have a ton of color, and on the highway from a distance they look like a beast approaching!
