Default Accelerate Yellow vs Highlighter

I went to to C8 Roadshow at Hendrick Chevy today. It was very crowded. Like many have said: the C8 looks much better in person than in pictures. The proportions are very good. Anyway... I took this picture to compare the new Accelerate Yellow with a large highlighter. I think it will look great on the C8 (


cough cough Z06)!

AY has Green mixed in. It's definitely not pure Yellow.

Excellent idea to bring a highlighter marker !!

gives better perspective instead of relying on how each camera picks up the color and lighting. Gives a great reference point.

Ingenious ! Good thinking !

AY is much more "solid" than the current Corvette Yellow " which I think is too white or "thin". The metallic in AY is a big win.
