I was impressed by the steering wheel in this vid. I've seen lots of pictures, but in this video, the smaller size of the wheel stood out to me for some reason. Kind of looks like the thickness of some of the Mercedes steering wheels.
I think this car will be a blast to hustle!
Thanks, OP.

Like the other gent said I expected it to be a lighter based off the hood picture. Be curious to see it in person or at least a better video when its not so gloomy outside.

From the limited pictures and video I've seen, it looks like it will be much like cyber gray, which I currently own, in that it is very dependent on lighting for its degree of "pop." I think crystal red metallic is similar in that respect.
At any rate, I am convinced that this is the color I want and that I'm going to really like it.

It's a good color. I like all of them so far and they show off the C7 in different ways.

I think one of the reasons why Bowling Green Metallic didn't sell better on the C5 was simply because it was so dark that under most lighting from a distance it looked black. Every Bowling Green C5 I've ever seen on the road looked black to me until I got right up beside it.
Hopefully Lime Rock Green isn't quite that dark, otherwise I fear it will suffer the same fate as Bowling Green and will have a very short run. A brighter green would have been a better choice IMO.

It's weird that people feel the need to be so abrasive. Perfectly happy folks are in here discussing whether or not they like the car, and some of our fellow forumers have even purchased the car in that config, but people need to come in here and talk it down.
Nothing wrong with saying it's not your favorite color, but when others are present who have just purchased that color - hauling off and calling it "crap" seems unwarranted.
I don't like green cars, but I actually like this color combo on this vette as pictured. Looks pretty slick and I even like the chrome wheels with that color combo.

Looks like the color presents itself differently under different lights. I bet it really pops in bright sun. That said, I'm a bright color person and wouldn't order on in that color. I would however order the light green one photoshopped. It's very similar to snakeskin green on Vipers which I love. One think I noticed in this video is how nice the new looped pile carpet looks. Looks very durable and high end.

To Lambo green.
But I do agree that there should have been a bit more lime, as in Rock Green Lime Metallic. But I still like the color because the darker colors work best with the carbon flash back. That vette still looks good though.
