Default Zeus Bronze in South Florida ?

Hello all
I have a C8 on order and need to make my final color choice.
Does anyone in South Florida have one in Zeus Bronze that I could see ?
I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Philip (Aventura, FL)

I too would like to see ZB in person.
I'm also considering that color.
I have yet to even see a C8 in any color.
I'm in Fort Lauderdale.

DONT order the $995 factory stripes and DO see vettestripes.com for better quality vinyl and
better DESIGNED stripes that FIT the Hood Lines for under $200

Get the base No Option Wheels and spend your Wheel Money with Vertini or MRR

Don't know of any Vettes however the color is also available on the 21 trailblazer, there is one at Miami Lakes Chevy, Dyer Chevrolet in Fort Pierce and one at Jim Browne in Dade City.

Thanks. I've seen that one. That's a great video and really shows you what the Zeus Bronze looks like. I guess it's just me but I'd still like to see the real deal in person.

There are NOT many C8’s running around South Florida that I have seen. Salemusa was nice enough to bring out his C8 long enough for me to sit in one before I placed my order, but that is the only C8 that I have seen. Hopefully more will start arriving in the near future. I ordered RedMist for my 2021 and I’m hoping that it looks a lot like the Mazda Soul Red. Unfortunately it is not a color that is currently being used on any GM product for comparison, so I understand your anguish over color selection.

For what it’s worth I thought it would be a one and done color. After seeing it in person I was very impressed and thought it was one of the three best colors when I saw them all in person at Spring Mountain. It stood out to me. Very classy and a bit darker in person. I’d go with black wheels though.

At least you can see the color itself on other GM products, that's your best bet.

Curiosity: Which dealer did you go through and was it MSRP? I'm in South Florida as well.

I bought my 2014 C7 at MacMulkin. They were great so I ordered my C8 from them. Strictly MSRP. No add-ons.
FYI: I shipped it down on Intercity but will probably drive the new one home.

We are looking to drive ours back to Davie from MacMulkin as well but I think your order is way ahead of mine. Are you going to have MacMulkin PPF your car before the trip home?

Last I heard I was #115 at MacMulkin. I'm planning on using Tracwrap for the trip home.
If money was not an object, I would have them apply the PPF.
Have you checked out "The Corvette Owners of South Florida Group" on Facebook ?
They're a good group and have a lot of get togethers and rides.
