Quick color question please...
Hey guys,
I am about to order a 2018 and had a quick question...
I love the blue on the C7...the very brilliant blue. I am "assuming" its the admiral blue but I keep seeing some pics of some newer 2017 cars and the blue looks darker.
Is it just the photo or the lighting??
I guess my question is...Is the blue from the 2015-16 cars the same blue or is there a new blue? I want that brilliant royal blue. Not dark navy and certainly not baby or grabber blue.

It sounds like the color you're referring to is Laguna Blue which was dropped after the 2016 model year and replaced with Admiral Blue. The latter is still a great color but it's much darker and with less "pop" than Laguna.

Even though I love the Admiral Blue I went with Long Beach Red. That Admiral blue pops in the sun and darkens a bit with different lighting conditions, It is definitely one of my favorites. I personally think it looks better then the Laguna but that's only my opinion.
