E.T.D. Corvettes

Not everyone is going to like every color, that's why they give us options. This year, there are 12 color options, which is fantastic! In 2019, Corvette Racing Yellow was the choice for only 3.75% of total 2019 Corvette orders. GM isn't trying to give us a new yellow to set color sales records for. They're doing it to appeal to buyers who want something different, and they know any shade of yellow is going to be a relatively low ordered color. But it's awesome that they have given us more choices than ever (except when they technically offered 16 color options when you could select four two-tone options from the 12 base colors).

GM doesn't often mess with their bread and butter colors. Arctic White, Torch Red, and Black. Us yellow fans just wish they’d stick with Velocity Yellow as it’s perfect. They tried to experiment with red and customers revolted until Torch Red returned at the end of the C6 Gen. They axed Precision Red after 2005, and then used Victory Red (a very nice color), but everyone wanted Torch back.

They’d sell more yellow if it was a classic hot rod yellow. Velocity was the perfect shade.

My favorite is Velocity Yellow as well.

If you've been watching the color market recently you'd notice that the trend to the Highlighter Lime Green is already there with the Asians. Not a trace of Yellow. The AY splits the market uniquely. The AY is definitely Yellow, unlike the Asians' Green. The Taxi Cab yellow is dead going forward for all intents and purposes. I'd be surprised if the AY doesn't surpass the Taxi yellows' past in percentages, for 2020 2021.

Think it looks great.

I do too.

Honestly, I wouldn't buy a yellow C8, but I like accelerate yellow better than velocity yellow.

Austin Yellow
I don’t think the corvette’s yellow compares, I was hoping it would have this tone... mind you this has the sun on it. BTW, everyone complained this yellow had too much green, but in person you don’t see it!

that' color rocks, and is super sexy (see upper left corner of my avatar )
Look it also lacks the 2" lift kit that they is installed on the corvettes, notice the wheel gap?

I'm not a yellow car guy - but this doesn't strike me as any better or worse than previous yellows on corvettes - just different.

I do think that car badly needs to not have black wheels and for the grilles/vents/trim covers to not be body color.

Incorporating some sort of gray striping or accenting would look reminiscent of the C8R.

RapidC84B

It's way worse... this is yellow.

StanleyTTU

Yes, that car is yellow. So is this one.

RapidC84B

Sure... and this is very greenish

I don't see the green. I just see a brighter yellow than before. Closer to the Lamborghini version than the old school yellow. I wouldn't buy either car.

I do think the new color would look better with better accent coloring though.

That is possibly the ugliest angle to photograph the C8 too.

Looks very close to the Lambo color in photos.

I don't like it. Too much gold but gold would look much better. Seems to combine the worst of yellow, green and gold. Hard to know how it could go so wrong. I'll bet is looks great in real life, one of the colors that doesn't photograph well.

I actually like this, looks sort of gold to me.

Come to think about it i wish i was one of the lucky few who owned an Aztek Gold C5

I think AY definitely has promise. It IS very different then yellows from past generations. Seeing it in person will probably be show what it’s really like. Don’t know if pics and video do it justice.

Btw, did you mean this flying banana yellow???

Metraman

This one needs some black accents.

and a paint job to a different color...
