Heading to MacMulkin
Since I live nearby, heading over to MacMulkin this morning to check out a morello red interior in person. Thinking about it as a possibility under ceramic gray. Will ask if any word from GM re allocation cycles starting. (Yes, of course I’m bringing boxes of Dunkin’ Donuts with me)

i heard all that reflection stuff years ago when I had a porsche with a beige dash. It is not a concern for me. It’s all about the color combination that appeals to me the most.

MacMulkin had about 15 C8’s on hand waiting for their new owners to take delivery/transport. Viewing the color combinations in person inspired me to change my spec. Now going with ceramic matrix gray over morello red dipped. They are really all stunning, can’t go wrong with any color.

You are one lucky guy , its like you went to the candy store for Halloween ,and you were the only kid in the store .That's the advantage of being close toMM .Curious what color combo did you change from ??? Also since since you brought the donuts did they tell you how many spots they expect you to drop before your order actually get matched to an allocation.???
I'm hoping the drop out rate will increase as it get close to the point that the deposits are no longer refundable

I once was only a couple of miles from MM in Merrimack, right off 3. It was a different time/different life, but wish it was reversed now. Although, right after receiving the C8, I'd want to be back again. I've long since stopped putting up my hobby rides for winter; now just drive them 365.....

I am retired and will occasionally go to Coughlin Chevrolet in Pataskala, Ohio to see what Rick Conti has. I have seen every color except black and IMHO Blade silver is the best. Cant believe they discontinued it for 2021.

I agree...I had a '20 Blade Silver Coupe that I sold in August and have a '21 HTC on order in Silver Flare but still not sold on the Silver Flare from what I have seen.

I was inspired by this thread and went to MacMulkin too. I took about 100 photos.
I have a thread about my journey to becoming a first-time Corvette owner. It's about the decision-making and learning process I'm going through while buying a new C8, and in case you want to see the car photos I took this morning, I've started posting them here: My (nick)name is Bear, and I have a first-world problem. - Page 6
