Is it possible that GM, or at least Corvette produces these unusual colors to have them out and about, not because of large sales? Whether it's Lime Rock green, Black Rose or no-orange-peel Sebring Orange, it does get attention. Sort of like an additional, rolling advertisement to have people take a look or a second look?

Yes, and they do generate additional sales, even if they don't sell in the quantities of the std black/white/red/shades of gray.
There is no doubt in my mind that there will be many first time Corvette buyers purchasing Sebring Orange.

Imo, charging for colors that cost no additional money to produce, especially on a $50k+ car is just petty.
This is among the many reasons why, other than Corvettes' (which I won't pay extra for a color), I won't buy GM vehicles.
