It was such a beautiful sunny day in New Orleans Saturday, I thought I would bring the boys out for a little sunbathing.....

The Sebring Orange, its a fantastic color in the sun......plus its hard not to love that ZR1

When I ordered the C8, my wifey asked if she could choose the color for this one, she has never really had any input on my Corvette orders. Obviously she picked Torch Red, she said a mid-engine sports car needs to be red. Would not have been my
first choice, but it does look good in red & its starting to grow on me. The red one is just to fill the gap until my C8 Z06 allocation comes up, so Torch Red will be easy to sell when the time comes.....

The stripe package looks so out of place to me on the C8

You need to take the boys out for a ride and put a little miles on them. I know they want to be driven.

Sorry, but for me red and orange clash. I'd never park them like that...
