Default She's bad. You KNOW she's bad!

I know orange isn't for everyone, but when Team Corvette gets a color right, they really get it right!

This color is awesome!

That color is much better in person. It has the same metallic flakes as Long Beach Red, which really shows in the sunlight. These pictures really don't do the color justice.

Yes that’s a great color! I normally don’t like colors like that on anything but a Lamborghini mclaren etc but this one just works and works well!

Looks good but it would look better with chrome wheels.

lol. I'm a chrome wheel fan myself, but I think Black wheels actually look good on this car. Would look good either way, but it looks badass with black wheels.

We ordered a 2019 with Kalahari interior and chrome wheels. I'm looking forward to seeing that one.

While I am not a big fan of orange, that looks really nice, and is bright enough to satisfy the old school fans of the C3's Ontario Orange.
I guess I am quasi old school, but on most C7 colors, I just don't like the Carbon Flash mirrors - just seems like a ricer add-on.

Look's just OK from the photos, I expect it looks much better in person.
IMO, it would "POP" more with chrome wheels and a carbon flash 'stinger'.

Funny how we all have different opinions. I wouldn't have got a C7 without the Carbon Flash mirrors and spoiler and Black wheels but to each his own!

CF mirrors + Black wheels = Perfection.

Looks good, but not a color I would want.
