Congratulations OP! Beautiful C7.

The one thing I can really say about this color is I've never owned a car with such a varying contrast depending on light conditions as this..

just like a shark near the surface in the Sun and in overcast conditions its silvery to dark gray. Very cool. what a perfect name for this color..





love the silvery look in the sun then gray and even dark gray outside of its presence. Timeless. Will always be asthetically pleasing and not overdone or played (imo).

Definitely worth the wait.....driving it every chance I have since the weather here in upstate NY shortens the season. !!

Putting some xpel on in a few weeks, hopefully save the $$ for carbon flash side skirts during the long winter. !! Thanks

Definitely a "sinister" looking shade of gray, and also love the variations the sun/shade pull out of the color. Putting my stinger stripe on this week too !!

Congrats! Get the CF Stinger stripe and some Michelin all season Pilot Sports, Shark Gray cleans up real nice. That color is at home anywhere.

Nice Car. You Vette probably will look much better after installing the front splitter and side skirts.
