It's just one of those colors that doesn't make anyone go "ooooohhhh" or "ahhhhhh"...they may do that cause its a Corvette...but rarely cause its silver.

A blue GS probably looks amazing...not sure Id give up that color for HP you'll never use (again, unless you track your car)... Good luck - post pictures of whatever car you decide to own...
Same here. Silver was a deal killer for me too. It has no pop to it. Just as you wrote. Porsche and Mercedes have Silvers that POP!

Obviously, the deal is done. If we were talking Stingray to Z06, I would say definitely do it. But.........you already own the Z06 look alike....so we are mostly talking horsepower here. Now here is where I would say hesitate on the car. You obviously like your Admiral blue. Silver is a long way from that color, now if Silver would have been your second choice when you bought the Grandsport, then again, I would say go for it. I told myself that for the prices we pay, I'm getting exactly what I want and that definitely means my first choice in color and maybe the second choice. (That goes for any vehicle that I buy, regardless of manufacturer) The question is how much do you like the Silver? If you like the Silver, then I'd say go for it......keeping in mind, in the end, it is still about the horsepower. Enjoy those new found ponies.

How much is a full wrap? Depending on the price, that may not make it worth the extra money to be spent on the new car.
