Default Zr1

I'm usually an Arctic White guy all the way, my last 3 Vette's have all been AW, but that color looks awesome. I've seen it first hand quite a few times now. If/when I order a ZR1 I think I'm going with that color.

I saw that you just got your allocation, congrats!!!

Corvettes918 had one of the first CMG he sold tho’. Rumor has it he got sick of people asking if his car was dirty all the time..😂
It’s a sharp color was going to do it myself but AW took over. Good luck with your color selection.

I am happy with the color. Looks white in a lot of pictures, but changes in different sunlight.

It looks good in Gray...I'm still not a fan of black wheels, though.

Mine was just picked up to be built, after 10 months waiting. CMG, with spice red interior, hope to see it soon, loved the color, no other choice for me.

Difference when in the presence of an AW C7 is amazing.

not a ZR1 but you get the picture.






the interesting thing about the CMG cars is when it's NOT in the presence of an AW one, it looks kind of boring. Idk why that is but it steals the show when an AW one shows up lol. It's like kryptonite to AW.

CMGM is an interesting color. Unique in lighting and next to white and gray cars, stands out. The color does not fit all schemes and the gray does not pop as much other manufacturers "ceramic" style colors. Seems a lot of the new GM grays lean to blue hues. A lot of questions about the color but the compliments come in on it also.

On the ZR1 and cars with stinger stripes CMG looks awesome.

FWIW
OP I like ceramic grey.
My vote, order your car in that color.
The car will look fantastic.

Go for it! If I could do it over, I would have bought a ZR1 in CMG. Can u get the side mirrors in black? If so, I would recommend doing so.

Yeah I ordered the black mirrors. At first I was going to go with the Elkhart blue but fell in love with CMG

Saw one at Carlisle with the high spoiler, red interior. It was the best looking car there. I'm totally sick of the orange. If I ever get one, it will be teh CMG. Stunning.
