Your Cyber gray and my Night Race Blue.

From this angle they actually look blue & gray. ......... Cyber Gray & Night Race Blue look very different dependant upon the lighting.

It seems that the essence of either color car is hard to capture with a photo. Am I right?


Cheers.

You are very right. Especially the NRB. I had a cyber gray Z06 and pictures don't do the car justice but you can at least tell its gray. You just cant see the colored flake in it. The NRB on the other hand is very difficult to capture it's blue color.

I've looked at all the NRB pics here on the forum (well, maybe not ALL) and I still find it difficult to get a sense of it. I can just barely tell that it's blue. I really have to see one IRL. Since both the green and cyber gray will be gone, the NRB is probably the next on the list of my likes. Not that the Vette looks bad in any color ...


Cheers.

Yup

No matter what angle I took the pictures from you can not get a good picture.

If you look closely at my car, it looks blue towards the front and black as you look at the back. Rays cyber gray looks darker as you look at the back too.

I can not tell you how many times I have been told how nice my black corvette looks

Here I am Shaggy , and pic looks good!! Unfortunately, you're right about the colors not showing their true POP. Both cars looked fantastic, we'll have to try again in better lighting conditions.

BTW, whats with the round taillights on that vette in the garage ??

To me the bottom line is both colors look great on the C7.
