I wonder with Rapid blue in top spot and the *late availability* how this will affect people’s decision to either wait or take a second choice ...

I'm going back and forth between the Bronze and Torch red. Both look great. My last 2 'vettes were both blue so blue is out this time around. and I don't about that yellow. Something looks 'off' about it. Might be my computer. Hopefully it looks better in person.

1. (tie) Zeus Bronze
1. (tie) Torch Red
3. Long Beach Red
4. Sebring Orange
5-11. No opinion: Arctic White, Black, Blade Silver, Shadow Grey, Ceramic Matrix Gray, Rapid Blue, Elkhart Blue
12. Accelerate Yellow (unless better in person it is FUGLY)

I haven’t decided between Torch Red or Black...yet I’m leaning more towards BLACK because I love Red Interiors I just don’t like the match of the Adrenalin and the Torch so the Adrenalin and Black is probably how I’m going to order my 2021 Vert Torch with Black is probably my second favorite

Chevy REFUSES to put a true Torch Red interior like 93-96 and 00-04 something they should have done since 2010

Happily no way I can do an early car, so I should be able to see all the color combos before I order. Wish the Comparator had truer color renditions.

I saw 5 in the wild today. (Milford Michigan)I think the black was the worst, in my opinion. The dark colors do nothing for the character of the vehicle. Long Beach red was decent but it looked burgundy in person.
Torch red or Arctic white for me!
