It probably doesn't mean a thing, but Googling "Rhythm and Blue paint color" brings up this.

Why? It kind of reminds me of your fender hash marks and interior.

Hard to tell much from the video since they show so little body-color painted area, but I'll certainly take your word on Corvette Paint!

That's my guess too. Lighter brighter colors seem to be trending more popular again.

Sorry if I did not show my appreciation for the info you provide. I just felt Rick was being criticized unfairly but I am also grateful for your hard work. Look it seems that at time the corvette forum has infighting for no reason. We are all united by the passion of Corvettes. No need to fight to get our point across.
No offense taken. All I try to do is provide helpful information for my fellow Corvette enthusiasts and generate excitement for the brand. Why do I do this? Because I've been in love with the Corvette since I was a kid, was able to buy my first one 11 years ago at the age of 36, have had the fortune of owning 18 Corvettes since then (including at least one from every generation), have received a ton of help from the people on this forum, have made more friends in the Corvette community than I would have ever dreamed possible, and because of all this, I just want to give back what I've been given and help others around here. So no thanks is ever needed because I do it out of my own gratitude and passion. I'm having a blast!

I agree...and no offense taken. The months of November through February on the forum seem to be more negative than other months. It seems true year after year and when Corvette owners can get their cars out from their winter slumber it seems attitudes improve as well.

I expect it to be a version of really dark grey - almost black - with significant metallic in in it. Maybe a dark gray version of night race blue, which had lots of different hues depending upon lighting.

I'm just glad they are keeping admiral blue. I wonder when the new paint booth will start producing admiral blue. Doesn't make much sense to buy a 19 if you don't get the new paint upgrade.
Looking at the list above it doesn't look like they changed much else. Still an A8 vs A10. I may buy a 17 that is still out there in the spring if it is still around or just order a 19. I'm really hoping they bring back the factory build tour, if not I hope museum delivery.

I believe more recent reports are that all colors will be coming out of the new paint booth once regular production resumes instead of just a handful of colors.

There will be different colors, but right now the announced maximum for the new paint booth is 12 colors.

Jeremy and jvp are the most well connected people on the forum-even more than any dealers that post.

Fingers crossed for something like Nassau Blue.
