Beautiful. This is the only coupe and color combination that could have pulled me away from my convertible. Came damn close to ordering this last year.

Are the Blues the Same
Is Opulent Blue the same color as Admiral Blue? With the same code?

It's the same, WA705U/GTR, opulent blue. This color is used since 2013 by GM for Cadillac (1st for CTS). Commercial name Admiral Blue for Corvette but the production use opulent blue...

Opulent blue and Admiral blue are the same same exact paint code.

Thank You!.. I am getting ready to order a 2018 ZO6 and did not want to get the wrong color name.

Finally another Vette after 43 years!
I had a new white 1975 Corvette when I met my wife so many years ago. We sold it soon after we were married, but I always longed for another Vette. Well, I retired fully last year after 30 years in the Navy and 11 years in industry, and it was time for a few changes in my life. The first thing I did was get a bird dog (French Brittany Spaniel who is an absolute bird hunting machine), and then I started looking at the C7 Corvettes. Naturally, I fell in love with them, and when the local dealer made me a deal on a 2018 Admiral Blue 1LT, I could not resist. What other color could a retired Admiral possibly get?

At a recent show that you can see some of my latest accessories. This blue brings lots of positive comments. It’s usually the only Stingray in this color, others are usually Grand Sports or Z06s. 1.5 yrs and enjoy the car even more now.
