So I decided to color the stitching on my SO GS the other day. I posted the pics in another thread. Came out pretty good.

Little over 2 hours. That's doing about 6" sections at a time Just remember to quickly wipe off the excess off the leather as you do it.

before I made the decision.....I went to a dealer in Houston which had a Z06 and a Grand Sport in SO....the color is stunning, especially in the sun. Its all I needed to make up my mind.

what gets me....I have never seen this color before....until the 2019 ZR1 debut, and I started looking to get me a new ride. The color came out in 2018....and doing a little research, I found out that only 85 cars (2018's) were made in SO. I ask my corvette salesman at the dealer and he told me he had NEVER seen one this color before, EVER. one thing for sure.... it will be VERY easy to find in a parking lot......and will draw some attention going down the road.

The reason for the small number of 18MY cars in SO is that they only started painting that color on production cars in January 2018, and 18MY production ended on January 26, 2018. 19MY production started on January 29.

A lot of people held off on ordering it until they could see it person, and once they started showing up, orders picked up. According to my source, it's #3 in popularity on current orders, so you'll start seeing more and more.

My 18 is a 1 of 1 SO Z51 convertible.

Ya my 2019 SO has a prod date of Feb 2018. Ya i figured it would become a popular color as more people see it in person. It's a great color.

My 18 was built on 1/22/18. It is an awesome color, and it surpassed my expectations. I took a risk ordering it sight unseen.

I would love to see a comparison to Inferno Orange on Camaro.
