Hello, this is Lisa from Michigan. I order the corvettes for our dealership. I am really torn between the three colors that are attached. 1st is the admiral blue that is going on the grandsport, however the Z06 will have more horsepower, the 2nd is a red mist (I haven't ordered this color for stock yet), and the 3rd is the new pitch gray (I am always a fan of gray metallic). We usually do pretty well with retailing our Z06 products, I would love any input that any of you may have regarding color. We are able to get the T0F spoiler and the CFZ carbon fiber ground effects that are on constraint, so that is why I have the spoiler on each of these builds. Thank you in advance for your input!
If I was ordering today AND I was doing it for a business. I would order the Admiral Blue with the all the aero you have on the car in the picture. I do like the snipers but NOT the rear stripes on the quarters. The admiral blue is new and hot right now.
The Red Mist is still available and can be easily found in left overs around the country.
The pitch gray is new. But for me it is not a desirable color right now. YES it is very nice. But I don’t see it in high demand.
The Admiral Blue is hot right now and would be an easier sale right now.
Thank you! I agree the admiral blue is a hot color this year! What do you think about the dual stripe with the red calipers, trying to make it similar to the grand sport look?
Okay, I updated the order to remove the Jake hash stripe on the back. I think we may order the "grand sport" red hash marks and put them on ourselves. I updated the interior to be black and red rather than the black and sky cool. Do you think we should still go with the red seat belt?
I like it!I would however ADD the red seatbelts to tie it all together.
I agree, but I wanted to put black seatbelts in a 2027 Z06 build with Habanero interior instead of the standard orange ones and was advised by the dealer it would force a color combination override costing an additional $1495. This changed for 2027 in Workbench but may not apply in this instance. I would be curious to know....
Thank you both for your input. I have updated the order to have the black and red interior rather than the black and sky cool gray. Plus I removed the rear Jake hash stripe and we will order the red rear hash stripes to mimic the grand sport look. Just with more horsepower
It allowed me to change from the black to the red seat belt. A $595 upcharge. Looks like you needed to bump to the 3LZ package to get the habanero. I am trying to keep this around $160k, so I have it with the 2LZ trim right now. New photo attached with red seat belt.

Thanks, yeah I knew I needed 3LZ to get Habanero, but the necessity for a color combination override to get black seatbelts was a change for 27 that I was not aware of.
As to the red seatbelts, I wouldn't want them with the red seats. I would with the red calipers if the seats were black or black with red stitching though. I prefer contrast where they touch.

Also, for $160k, I would choose a Z06 over a Grand Sport all day long.
Yeah, for some reason GM won't allow the black seat belts with the habanero seats, I just went in and played around with a 3LZ package. Not sure why, like most things with ordering these types of vehicles, there is a design engineer that has their reasons
Agreed on the contrast, going to change ours back to the black seat belt. Thank you!
