Default Elkhart Lake Blue ZR1!!

We are nearly 2 months into production and I have seen very few ELB C7 ZR1's on the forum and none in person. I check the Official ELB Picture thread daily, but the only ELB Vettes there are mostly Stingrays, Grand Sports and a couple Z06's. IMO ELB is a fantastic color. Admiral Blue was too dark for me and Laguna Blue was too light and got "washed out" when in sunlight becuase it was such a light color. ELB on the other hand is a perfect balance, slightly darker than Laguna, with a bit more purple, and much lighter than Admiral Blue. The C7 ZR1 is the best Corvette yet in my opinion, followed by the C7 Z06 and the C3 Corvettes. So it is fitting I wish to see one of my favorite cars of all time in my favorite color: blue. So, does anyone out there have an ELB ZR1? If so, please post your pics below! Thanks :-)

Thanks, but I've already seen it. The goal is to get people to post ELB ZR1's here. But thank you

Yeah. Don't get me wrong, Sebring Orange is a great color. But it is WAY overused now. I lost track of how many threads I have clicked on of people taking delivery of their new car, hoping for once it's not a SO car. But then I am disappointed most of the time. Yeah, congrats on the new car and all but you couldn't go more original at all?

^^^ That definitely is a nice color! Love the C3's. The curves just do it for me. Unfortunately it gets a bad rep because it was born in an unfortunate time where every engine was being choked by emissions. One of my goals is to restore one some day.

The later C3's do get a bad rep. No emissions on my 70 454 LS5 a blast to drive.
