Love the Silver with chrome wheels. I racked my brain about doing my ZR in silver until my co-pilot said they liked the Grey Metallic better which was on my previous C7.

Welcome to the family - you are gonna absolutely love this car !!!

Yeah not too many of us with silver cars and chrome wheels. That’s fine with me. Anxiously waiting delivery. Your car looks great though!

My C5 Z06 was silver with chrome wheels. I fell in love with the combination.

The last two weeks the ZR has been out getting the WeaponX 850/900 treatment (absolutely amazing by the way - the increase in mid-range torque is amazing), and getting the finish corrected. First a day and then some of getting hand wet-sand and buffed to get rid of all the clear coat orange peel. There were also several "dry spots" on the tops of the rear fenders that were found and corrected.

Then the full wrap that took 2 more days longer than the originally planned 3 - the front clip being the hardest. The outcome was incredible. The finish now "pops" from any angle.

I don't have pictures yet because its been cool, rainy and overcast this past week. But it is going to C&C Saturday and hopefully we will have a South-Florida blue-bird day and I can post some fresh pictures.

Cheers -

Rob, the good thing is wheels are easy to change out down the line if you want to go with a different color/ or style Alan could probably hook ya up with Chromes too
Looks AWESOME either way All a matter of preference.
