He actually said "on line". I interpret that as meaning "on the computer screen".

Oops, my bad.

OP, in that case, it could be your monitor needs to be adjusted (calibrated). My comment about "outliers" in the photos still holds. Generally, I find the photos look pretty close to what I see when I look at my Laguna Blue.

Laguna Blue will stand out. SG will blend in with other vehicle traffic.

Saw today on Fox News that Silver and Gray were tied for the 3rd most popular color. With SG you save what $500 to 1K extra for a blue paint job. I will never know why LB, VY, LRG and CRM cost that much extra to paint.
I ordered SG and put that paint money on booze, very good booze.

Thats HOT!

I was going to get Laguna Blue for the C7. After having a spiral gray C5 and a cyber gray C6 i wanted something different and Laguna Blue is freaking awesome. Even better in person than in the pictures.

Then i found this:



I dont think you could go wrong either way. If i could have two of them my other one would be laguna blue.

LB. My 2013 was CG and it was a great color. You really cannot go wrong with either.

Both are great colors for the C7, especially when paired with the red interior.

I really thought I want the SG until I saw this. LB is really nice too. Black wheels on the SG is the only way to go with that color, awesome combo.

Laguna Blue looks better with black wheels... Shark Gray looks best with chrome wheels... IMO
