Couldn’t be happier with the choices. New green is phenomenal. Can’t wait to explore the performance!

Modified C8 of the Year 2021 Finalist
Default My Recent Arrival

Greetings fans of Roswell Green Metallic. My new 2026 Z06 HTC 3LZ, special order was delivered on February 16 from MacMulkin Chevrolet via Intercity Transport. Kudos to everyone for a job well done. One bad thing. General Motors imposed a $500 increase on the delivery charge to a presold, contracted Corvette which was already in production with a designated VIN. In my perspective the sudden $500 increase was indefensible.

Post delivery add-ons are radiator protection screens, splash guards, carbon fiber engine tonneau cover, cast aluminum intake manifold covers, all-season Michelin Pilot Sport tires, Ultimate Pedals, carbon fiber console trim, and aluminum/CF license plate frame. BTW, my new license tag is in process. Some fresh pics on an overcast day:

Very tired after driving home 10 hours. Forgive the dyslexic typing. R8C is the internal code for NCM delivery option.

Thank you! We did the yellow stitching and seat belts inside and it all ties together very well.

Got it...I thought it was a new package.. Nice car, I have a Sebring Orange Z06 coup on order, after I saw the RG in person I played around with the configurator and came up with the same config.....RG, Black Int, yellow stitching, belts and calipers....I think it looks killer..

I could be wrong but I don't believe there is a Roswell Green in the C8 Official Color Sticky, these pics might be a great start!

I finally saw this color in person a couple of weeks ago and it is beautiful. Probably would be my second favorite color behind Riptide Blue....and that is a close second.

Default On order and R8C delivery is tentatively scheduled

I had decided on Competition Yellow then Roswell Green was announced. Waited until I could see one personal and up close and that sold me on making the switch. Will post pictures when it happens. Should be within the next 30 days or less!

I am kind of in the same boat, I was dead set on Sebring Orange until I saw RG in the sunlight, now I am flopping back and forth between three colors, SO, RG and Black….
