Looks great! Minus the Z51 spoiler....that is the exact color combo I have on order. Dealer called yesterday that my Silver Flare HTC was picked up for February and will be submitted next week.

The pictures in this thread are the first one's I've seen where Silver Flare shows a "bluish tint". Most pics look like the first one, where it shows more gold in the color.

Is it possible the metallic in the paint is just reflecting the blue sky in the day or gold when the Sun is at dusk?

That's a good thing! Folks that say they don't like the blue hue they see must not like looking at the sky. I own a 19 GS Blade Silver that does pretty much the same thing. I love Blade Silver and Sliver Flare is an awesome color too. The sky is a beautiful thing.
The paint has gold metal flake, silver metal flake and blue metal flake in it. So if the lighting is right any one of those colors will pop. It's fine with me..
2021 2LT Coupe w/Sky Grey interior picked up 020921. Different angles to show how the light affects shading.
Also, I am going with DIY Ceramic coating as I have had great performance with other vehicles. The car was just detailed out using Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic coating and will be picking up the new TW Ceramic later in the week.
As I've only had this for a day I am still getting used to it. Yes, it's the Silver Flare and yes I am very pleased with the color. It morphs depending on the light angle and I like that it;s always changing, I also like that maintenance is much easier. My last Vette was Magnetic Red (02 C5) and I always felt the need to wash or wax every time I took it out.
I also went with the Sky Grey 2LT interior. I'm still getting used to it but based on previous summers in the all black interior I wanted to go light and wasn't sure about Natural with SF.
For those still waiting anxiously I will say that I am VERY pleased I got a lighter color. I am VERY pleased with the quality and feel of the car. I know we see a bit of negative commentary here, but perhaps that's because people who are happy don't tend to post. I can tell you I would buy the car all over again !
One note: The 2LT security system is over the top. I had locked the car with windows down. I flicked a leaf off the top and the alarm went off. Thank goodness it was in the garage. I then tossed an envelope (with 1 page in it) onto passenger seat. Again, alarm goes off ! Wife wasn't too pleased with the 5AM wakeup !
