Default Corvette Configurator Errata

I’m putting this on here hoping someone at GM will pass this on to the appropriate individual(s) so these errors can be corrected.

In the C8 configurator on the GM website there are the following errors, which have been there from the outset:

When the Black Roof and Nacelles are selected on the convertible, the view of the car with the top down does not show the top down. With only the Black Nacelles selected, it works properly.

When the Edge Red with Black Accents is selected, the red shows as black in the second exterior view. It is correct in all other views.

Thanks.

The Build and Price tool has a "Message Us" on the top right corner of the page. More likely to get noted there than here.

Also if you add the new hood and side graphics it doesn't show them on the car

The message link on the Configurator sent me to an automated car purchase tool. I finally got an “advisor’ who seemed more interested in selling me a car than the errata issue. She did say she’d pass it on to IT, but I’m not very confident that will happen

Default As I expected...

Well, I guess the “advisor” forgot to advise IT because the problems with the Corvette Configurator noted in this thread still haven’t been fixed.

Those have been broken since day 1. I've tried reaching out to GM's site support but I guess they don't care. Rather annoying when you want to see what it looks like. In the visualizer, you can see the top down but not the Build & Price site.
