I ordered my C8 accelerate yellow! Has anyone actually seen one yet? I was at the unveiling of the convertible in Kennedy space and Gm rep says they had built one already but has anyone seen one yet??
Firstly, congratulations! I think it's going to be a great color on this car and am excited to see one myself.
But... there's not one real picture of Accelerate Yellow in any of the 24 threads dedicated to the color. And I'm sure as soon as it's shown, there will be 24 more threads of everyone showing it off!
<-- Actually, I'm pretty sure the forum's smileys are Accelerate Yellow
GM better get their a** in gear and release it! There are a lot of potential buyers who want to see AYM before they buy their C8. Can’t figure out why the delay in showing it. Wondering if there’s a problem with it.

It was noted by the Plant Manager that body panels where painted, but not built. Maybe the strike held up production?

I’ve been 100% Accelerate Yellow since the reveal. Ordering it once constraint is lifted (I already let someone order ahead of me as his car didn’t have constraints)
You won’t be the only one ordering AY sight-unseen!
I don't believe for one second that GM was able to build pre production cars in every single color except Yellow.
For a while I thought they were saving it for the convertible or the race car but now I truly believe there is a problem with Accelerate Yellow and not hearing any word from GM about it just solidify s my belief.

It's definitely a possibility. The vert and racecar reveals were prime opportunity to reveal the color. Maybe they came to their senses and decided to revert to Velocity Yellow, the best Corvette yellow of all time (perfect shade).

I’m thinking that after seeing it on a car they may have second thoughts about it. I’m sure they don’t want it to be another “Precision Red” disaster like on the C6 in 2005. It’s astonishing that they won’t reveal it on an actually car. Something is definitely not right otherwise they would have revealed it by now.
