Very sharp! Still waiting on my ACY HTC with red calipers. I would guess I will get it when I have snow for a background contrast. Enjoy that ride!

Very nice looking car! I was under the impression that the color was very much like highlighter yellow, but pleasantly surprised!

Congrats. Your shirt almost matches the colour. I watched a little bit of your delivery on the webcam.

I'll have to wait for a 2021, but I'm still thinking the yellow is the color I'll get.

My only question -- were you disappointed when you showed up in Bowling Green and your car didn't match the yellow of your shirt?

All kidding aside, congratulations on your C8.

Wow - that's a surprise, and for me a good one. I didn't like the photos of the overly green Accelerate Yellow cars, but this one is gorgeous. I love a nice yellow car and I find the color on this particular car beautiful. Just enough green to be interesting in the shadows and a sweet clear yellow in the sun. Perfect! It reminds me of some Vettes and Camaros that I have known and loved in the past.

Congrats on your sweet new ride. I love it!
