Its prob too soon but has anyone seen all three Greys side by side yet? I know the differences will probably be hard to see in a pic but it would be cool to see all three next to each other.
And I know this will just be an excuse for C7Jake to post pics of his car lol

I haven't seen 'em all side by side, but my impression of Shark Gray I saw in person (ZO6) outside a restaurant in the bright sunshine wasn't favorable. To tell you the truth, photographs of all three look better than seeing them in person, in all likelihood. If the Blade Silver had a little more oomph, instead of so anemic - that would be the cat's meow, IMO. I'm interested in the WGG because that's what is available for ordering on the 2017 C7s....

For anyone who wants to see WGG in person, go to a Chevy dealer and look for Nightfall gray on Camaro, Equinox, Malibu, Cruz, Sonic, of Spark. Same exact paint code.

There's a BIG difference between Cyber and Shark. I had a 2012 Cyber GS and waited to see the Shark and when I did, I was disappointed with the color. Your talking to someone that has had a Pewter, 2 - Silver and a Cyber. You know what I ended up buying - DSOM and love it. Never thought I would go that route, but Shark did NOTHING for me.

I thought I had just about decided on Shark but the WGG looks great. I liked the Shark because I always loved pewter and in the pics it makes me think of pewter. As an owner of pewter your saying that Shark is not similar?

that's what I did.. took a pic of a NFG Camaro and posted in the Official WGG thread..
I will say, it is darker than I expected. There seemed to be a green tint to gray, but that might be me. Plus the Camaro wasn't washed so there was no shine or lustre to it, so it didn't help my opinions of it. I'm still waiting for a dealer here to get a Vette in WGG and have it shined up.. then I can make the ultimate decision haha.
Shark Gray changes depending on the type of light, time of day, and surrounding colors. It also is light enough to show off the contrast with black accents really well in all cases. I like most all colors on the C7, but thought SG was particularly did a good job of complimenting the C7's lines. To me NG/WGG is very dark and I have not seen enough CG cars to really evaluate how they look. Like all threads about color, this is totally subjective.

i must say I do like the wg gray the best. However, still not as much as my arctic white coupe. I also think the grand sport has the best wheel design compared to the stingray & ZO6

That's exactly what I am saying. If you had Pewter and put it next to shark - You'll see the difference. Be sure to take your sun glasses off.
If you look closely at CG vs SG -
the base grey color is nearly identical, but
CyberG has blue and green flecks in the base paint color,
SharkG has silver and (beige, I think) fleck, but not blue & green

and you captured the different looks of SG and exactly why I got it.
CG is not as dark than SG and I would have gone with Silver if SG was not available, but wasn't totally sold on it either.
The WGG is the darkest of the 3 and think they all look good
I just didn't want something that goes too dark in the shade and loses the lines of the car.
SG can look a bit drab in the shade but it's still light enough to show the lines of the C7 clearly.
Nice to have choices and just my 2 cents
WGG is definitely darker than I expected. I do love the color though. Having had about 3 weeks to admire it, I tend to think the car looks more menacing in darker colors. Dirt spots do show a bit more but not nearly as bad as if it were black.
