Does anyone know what colors are going to be available in the C8? Someone on another forum said they were going to get rid of Red, Black and White.

I believe each Corvette generation generally lasted about 9 years before something new is released. This one came out in 2014 and is doing pretty well, I highly doubt we will see anything new until 2022 or so....
First generation-C1 (1953–1962) - 9 Years
Second generation-C2 (1963–1967) - 4 Years
Third generation-C3 (1968–1982) - 14 Years
Fourth generation-C4 (1984–1996) - 12 Years
Fifth generation-C5 (1997–2004) - 7 Years
Sixth generation-C6 (2005–2013) - 8 Years
Seventh generation-C7 (2014–present)

The colors that are chosen are based on projections of what will sell. Past performance is always a factor. The three colors listed above are all proven performers with Corvette. IMHO, they aren't going anywhere but on every generation of Corvette, every year.

This would be true only if GM wants the C8 to be a total failure.
