classy :thumbs:

Sexy car.

So pissed I didn't go to Carlisle. :(

1SG_Ret 08-23-2019 09:57 AM

Now that is a color combo I could live with and not grow tired of. :cheers:

That colour combo adds $50,000 to the price of the car. Looks awesome.

Initially I fell in love with this color combo but it's wearing thin on me now, especially in direct sunlight.

I'm going to stick with my red on red 2LT version when the time comes.

Thanks for the pics.

That is a great color that no one will actually buy. What a fantastic example of how clean and classy this car can look. With that said, there is a stigma about buying a brown car that will stick in people's heads. You are going to be all hyped up to buy me new brown Corvette... and you get called to order your car and blurt out TORCH RED.
Get it while it lasts, because I don't think Zeus is here to stay. Particularly because it looks best when it is highly optioned with the dipped interior and access wheels, this is not going to be a big seller IMO. But damn it is perty.

I'll dissent.

That looks awful. That color scheme should have died with square Volvos.

cmonkey713 08-23-2019 07:45 PM

I would like to see it in person and in the sunlight. Looks nice from the pics here.:thumbs:

quick04Z06 08-23-2019 07:57 PM

Gorgeous. Porsche has often used a similar color palette.

68roadster 08-23-2019 08:27 PM

Looks delicious!

Ive never liked brown cars.

This corvette c8 in zeus bronze in person with the bronze wheels and the natural interior was absolutely stunning.

this made the c8 literally look like a million dollar supercar.

james Bond would be driving this color combo and optioned vehicle.

its really that rich looking and that was under the tent lighting.

in the sunshine it would look even more amazing.

One of the show cars at Corvettes at Carlisle is this Zeus Bronze 3LT Base with Natural Dipped Interior. Pricing shown as optioned.

This one had the Comp Seats in it and was supposed to stay locked. GM didn't want folks crawling around it because they were and are using it for their Tech Talks. The engineer that drove it down accidentally had the keys too close to the car and it unlocked at one point. Some folks took it upon themselves to crawl into it until Tadge shooed them away. It's funny: he turned his back for the briefest of moments and it was like a vacuum was created: instantly someone was in the passenger seat. I was put on guard duty for a bit and had to ask the person to hop out so we could close the car up.

Why I feel they should have made this color exterior and Interior in 3LT along with those wheels, and a few other goodies a Special Edition of say 500, to maybe 750-1000. Bet they would all sell a lot of them then. And availability gone by mid 2020. A sin to produce that classy color in 1LT interior especially with D30 override IMO :flag:

I just had 3 kids under 15 look at it and all 3 love it. So, the younger crowd approves.

Yep, dealers will call it "back of book brown" just like they always have.

For those who like it, wait a year or 3, super cheap on the used market, total outlier color that will be the depreciation king amongst C8's.

That must be because it does not have any chrome on it. Apparently the GM marketing people now say that chrome is for us "old" people from the 60's and 70''s! Well this old guy does like chrome but ordered the C8 Z51 in ZBM with natural two-tone 3LT interior, FE4 Mag Ride, Spectra gray Trident wheels, Engine Appearance Package, and tan belts. Not a speck of chrome and I'm loving it! I must be feeling younger!
