Hi Mike, thanks for the great post. You are making it harder and harder to chose. Speaking of harder, these 2 beauties have to be my favorites! Ha!

Oh my...I love the orange/black color scheme! I've really been in love with that combo since the 997 GT3 was released. Thanks for posting, and congrats to both Mike and all the new owners!

I will have to see one in person before rendering judgment..........but I bet the Sebring Orange will really "pop" on a sunny day.

Good question. I've decided to evaluate the new GM upgraded MSRC calibrations for 1-2K miles to satisfy my curiosity. It's already clear to me that they are less harsh than the OEM FE4 package in my '14. However, I'm almost certain I'll put the DSC back in by late spring, along w/ getting the car aligned at DSC/TPC Racing.

Great pictures Mike. I love the Sebring Orange. I liked the picture of the unrestored 1969 Corvette roadster in white and primer. I had a 69 roadster that was really nice when I was only 21 years old. Thanks for sharing.

Cannot see why they would be cutting WGG! Makes no sense period.
Featured Color on the ZR1 Top seller and best Gray ever!
Actually best color they make right now! IMO!

But then they will Keep ceramic or some other lessor color!
Oh well I have 1 Z06 in WGG and it is yet to catch 1 single chip!

The Sebring Orange doesn't appear to shine in these pics like the ZR1 at the car show unveil... How does it look in person? I wonder if it sparkles and changes colors like this or only in the auto show lighting, I haven't seen one yet in person:
