Default Blade Silver vs Cyber Grey Z06

I saw two new Z06"s in a Vegas showroom yesterday. One was Cyber Grey and the other was Blade Silver. I had my mind made up on the Cyber until I saw the Blade parked next to it. Help me out with pictures of your Cyber or Blade Z06's. I am going to trade my Atomic Orange Z51. I really like the AO but I want to have a change when I get a new car. Thanks

Were they both outside? If not the Cyber Gray is stunning in the sun and Silver is just another Silver in or outside

I'd do the Cyber Grey...it looks incredible with the Ebony 4LT interior. Blade silver is actually too weak of a color for that incredible car. I was at the National Corvette Museum yesterday and there's a cyber grey Corvette with two tone ebony interior in the "nursery" that really caught my eye. The colors really compliment each other!

No, there are 15 counties and 15 Sheriffs in Arizona. I am one of the other 14. Joe is a Ford person.

I think Blade Silver looks too much like white. Machine Silver is better. Go for the Cyber Gray.

I was going to buy blade silver until I saw it in person. It's just too light. It's very plain looking, IMO. Quicksilver is the nicest silver ever offered from GM. Machine silver isn't too bad either, but Blade silver is not very attractive, IMO.

I know it's a ZR1, but you get a great view of the color at night with lights reflecting on the paint. This color is just awesome.

Default Cyber Gray

Too many silver Toyota's running around. I've been very happy with my 2009 Cyber Gray Z06.

Blade silver is nice but Cyber Grey wins by a mile.

Default Blade silver

Was this introduced in 2009? Was it machine silver in 2008?

Yes, Blade Silver is a new, lighter, slightly slower version of Machine Silver.
