For me I’m torn between torch red and elb. I know the red looks amazing as I’ve seen a ton of c8 base cars in red. Never have seen a elb in person. In the direct sun I know it’s a stunner in darker lighting not so much? I need to see it in person. I got alot of time anyway. At least a year or more I’m sure.

I was asking people there for photos with satin titanium and satin graphite next to each other but no luck. So far this is the best I've seen @10 min mark. Torch red with satin titanium and red mist with satin graphite.

ELB is pretty nice in person and was my number 1 color. But after seeing Red Mist in person, that color moved to number 1. Can't go wrong with Torch Red either though.

Not different skirts, just the reflection off the lighting make them look a little different.

Not sure people know but the 3LZ interior door panels get extra stitching as you can see here. I like it better than just a flat surface.

It's nice but on the flip side I'd say it adds a bit more noise to an already busy interior. Doesn't appear the pattern represents anything. Can't really go wrong either way.

Is that stitching pattern the same on the 3LT? Or new to Z06?

Or you could just take the painted one off and have it painted carbon flash, probably cheaper than an aftermarket piece.
Is the painted one the same size as the Carbon Flash painted one? The Carbon Flash painted splitter looks more pronounced to me.

Painted vs Carbon Flash? This is not a thing.

No splitter = body color
Splitter - carbon fiber painted in carbon flash
Splitter - exposed carbon fiber

Only the 3LZ for the Z06 get this new stitching the Stingray 3LT does not.

Kinda but not really. Wishbone doesn't have a pinch point like that pattern.

I’ve been waiting to see this… first time we’ve seen a Silver Flare Z07. Screenshot from the recently released Corvette Academy video.

I’m still having a hard time believing I’m liking a silver Corvette this much.

Silver does look great. I'd get a black interior with it. I don't like the adrenaline red interior combo with the silver HTC show car.
