Depending on any new color in 2015 or 2016, I am thinking Artic White. I suspect it will hide the complex lines the most, but am really hoping they come up with a Pearl White, or Lime Rock Green has some serious color in it. Like jaguar's Green has pearl, gold and silver flake in it. I did one in my detail shop and Zaino enhanced the flake so it looked 3 dimensional. It was absolutely incredible, never seen anything like it. The customer sent me an Email later that evening and said it took him 45 minutes to get out of the Safeway parking lot because so many people came over to look at the car and paint.

It will probably be a while before I can afford one, but I want mine in Lime Rock Green!

I will need to see the 'Lime Rock Green' in person to be sure. But for the first time ever I would consider Artic White on a sports car. Had a dark green 74 and loved that car/color, had a 77 black and will never own a black car again, had an 05 DSOM, if they bring back DSOM -Daytona Sunset Orange Metalic would go that route.

So far the only C7s built are in Cyber Grey and Torch Red, so it will be a few more weeks before we see the other colors on an actual car. Those color renderings on the Chevrolet site are never all that accurate, if you look back at the ones posted for the C6 you'll see what I mean, a lot of the colors aren't even close to reality.

I love the Cyber Grey (which is my favorite compared to the colors available), Blade Silver & White.
I am not so sure about the Night Race Blue as i have never seen that color in person. I recall seeing 1972 C3 Corvettes in Royal and Midnight Blue.
However I would really like if GM offered the Jetstream Blue & Carlisle Blue as in the picture posted below. I find they really show the cars line well.
Unless GM renamed Jetstream Blue to Laguna Blue
Wonder if there will be more color choices in 2015-16 models years.

I REALLY hope they offer some matte finish options at some point... I don't want to have to vinyl wrap mine...
