I went with Rapid Blue with Adrenaline Red Seat and seatbelts, just installed carbon splitter and skirts, new wheels on the way along with lowering kit. I didn’t want a wing on the back so I opted to not go with the Z51 option.
Everyone loves the color combination, the front lift is well worth the money, if you haven’t thought about it, I’d consider it.
I find my RB is very easy to clean and looks clean all the time, the carbon flash rims really hide the brake dust which this car seem to make more of than any other car I own. The black interior is great as I really don't like light colors as they are really hard to clean and with a black lab the fur will show badly. Last night went out for dinner and walked out to my car at about 7pm and it looked great with the sun going down, bight sun washes it out.

This is super HOT!! Making me rethink what to order for my color combo. Thanks!
^ ^ ^ Love your car. The Rapid Blue combo with those seat colors is the best IMO. Is 3LT required to get the seats? Thanks
Yes 3LT for the blue seats. I didn't want summer only tires with the Z51, not a fan of spoilers. I have almost everything that comes with a Z51, don't need 200 MPH brakes or extra cooling. $88k 2021 Corvette Stingray Convertible C8

Selected every option available on the car but due to constraints didn't get all the visible carbon options I ordered (mirror caps, 5VM kit, high wing, front air inlets) except the engine appearance package, interior and the removable top.
Easy to clean
Looks way better in person
Changed my order from white with Morello red interior and so glad I did. Hopefully the pics below give you an idea.
Finally got my wheels in from Strasse and they completely changed the look of the car. Just bought the high wing in carbon flash and the rocker extensions which are getting finished in carbon flash. Plan on doing a real photo shoot once all the upgrades are finished.
Placing my order tomorrow and I'm 99% sure it'll be a Rapid Blue HTC (black top) with GT2 two-tone seats, natural/black - but first, a few questions:
1.) Is Rapid Blue hard to keep clean, i.e. like a black car?
2.) How does the light play affect the color? Is it more baby blue in the sun / shade?
3.) What color interior did you go with?
4.) What colors were competing with Rapid Blue for you, and any regrets?
Pictures are always appreciated - getting excited for the allocation after this wait!
Not at all.
More light the lighter the color looks, doesnt take great pictures sometimes in bright sunshine.
Black
Matrix gray.

Your C8 Build looks amazing and your plate made me smile!
