Great looking coupe; especially with the inferno orange stripes. I have a coupe, TPW 3/3, that should have been built this week. CRT with the inferno orange stripes. I'll post pics when it arrives. In the meantime, I hope you don't mind me starring at yours. Also, I ordered the Kalahari interior which I think will enhance the stripe choice.

On a more serious note after seeing the pictures of the cars some of the stripes look good to me even though I would not them on my car.
I think they are called "skid marks"!

I truly LOVE all these awesome cars but GOD I really hate that silver bar in the grille. Thats the first thing that is going away when I get mine.

Have an Arctic White on order and was considering the red stripe. Looks pretty nice. Was also thinking of the black stripes or just the black stinger. Will have Z51 package but not black wheels.

I have Laguna Blue w/ Silver stripes on order, but saw Arctic White w/ Red stripes photos and it was one of the best looking cars I have ever seen. It had a red interior, red stripes, red calipers, and the black spoiler & mirrors. (It also had black wheels - but I could go either way on that.) If you haven't seen that combo, go to the Chevrolet site and "build" one - I think you will be impressed.

We have to do something while we wait for our cars to be built.

That is freakin' beautiful! Very subtle look.

I had a 2013 60th, white with the silver stripes (full length). I like the look, and am considering carbon stripes on my Cyber Gray C7. Just need to make sure there's enough contrast.

Thanks! My best friend was trying to talk me out of it by saying it looks too video gamey but since I do computer animation, I didnt realize that meant he thought it was a bad idea. He has since changed his mind

I cannot wait to see pictures of your car! Even then, I dont think pictures will convey just how awesome it really looks. I may have to take a road trip

That would be a truly beautiful car! Unfortunately, I live right between Boston and New York so either people would cheer the car or throw stuff at it for the wrong reasons

Well........Since it's not really someone's "real" car, I don't feel bad about saying; All it needs is blue denim seats and we could call it "The Levi's Special Edition".

Thanks, it looks good as a Z51 convertible too. I am pretty sure this is how I am going to order it, with the 3LT Brownstone. I've been trying to find some photos of LB with Kalahari top. The configurator won't let me select a top color. I think it looks good with the black top but feel the Kalahari might really bring out the Inferno Orange stripes. What do you think?

I'm not a Florida fan or an Auburn Fan. Actually a Tennessee fan, but love the orange and blue combination. I've posted photos of my two G8's elsewhere here; one Ignition Orange and the other Stryker Blue. I would hope no one would throw stuff at one of these cars for any reason. Love your color combo by the way.
