As I was driving my 16 YO granddaughter home from high school yesterday in my Night Race Blue C7, she saw a Sebring Orange C7 and said "Oh that's cool!..........too" But she waited just a little too long to say "too.". Another orange car fan!

I picked up my SO 2019 in March of 2018.
What he (and Foosh) said - the figures on the 2018 model year sales is a skewed number because the color wasn't out long enough to justify how popular the color could be. I wanna say it was available only weeks before the 2018 model year came to an end. 2019 figures are a much more accurate representation, especially after hearing numerous people saying Chevy "plays it too safe" with their color palette up to this point. You could debate the lack of popularity of Sterling Blue Metallic (maybe), but not Sebring Orange.

I love it! Lots of comments all the time from admirers...especially in the bright sun. 2019 Z51 Coupe StingRay with 3LT. Only 3 months old...8900 miles.



Out with the old (153 K miles)...in with the new.

The more I see it, the more I like it. Too much black trim detracts though, in my opinion. I passed on one when I got got my 2019 last year. It had black side mirrors, which stood out like a sore thumb. I think Corvette needs more colors apart from the neutral ones. I used to think red was the only good color on Corvettes but the cayenne orange equinox shown above looks really nice.

Never thought I would be driving an orange car, but if the dealer really wants to get rid of it...could happen...and it's Halloween!

Sebring Orange, is the 1st GM Orange that I really like. Just enough metallic AND, a really attractive shade of orange to make it pop!
