Cacti is intriguing to me. And I think I might like it with the Artemis interior. Artemis is on the Build and Price options, but remember it is a special color panel similar to Morello Red, and Tension Blue schemes that were/are only available with 3LT trims. If you don't select 3LT on the build/price tool, Artemis isn't a choice.

Initial reaction was blah, but it's slowly growing on me. Do I have the ***** to pull the trigger on this color? Probably not. As others have said, I would likely let someone else experiment with this new color. With all this being said, I think it looks best with natural dipped interior.

I totally agree! Also the 50TH with Anniversary Red which was never used again...

It depends on your "play money" and how you process what the car will be worth someday. I am at that point in life where I don't care what it will sell for someday, just my present enjoyment of the car. If a rare color turns out to be sought after, or not, it doesn't impact my decision, if the color moves me. This color moves me.

BTW - this pic in your post is a beautiful combo.

Looks good to me certainly better than a few of the current color offerings.

I am disappointed in the number of white/silver/gray/black colors when compared with the rest of the palatte. These colors make up 50% of the available choices!

It seems the Artemis interior is only available on the 3LT.

I will say that color is certainly different. I probably would not choose it over many of the other colors GM offers on the C8, but if you like it, that is all that counts. I would suspect it will be a low volume paint color.

That’s a color I’d have to see in person. I think the configuration makes all the cars look weird.

at the shows I’ve seen in photos I like how corvette marketing configured the car.

a Eray with black accents, Artemis interior and the wheelsa they chose.

it’s the designers choice that I would follow

these colors are great for leases. Not sure the unique colors would age well over time for me.

I do believe it’s important for owners to pick what they like best.

I look forward to seeing them on the road and in person.

I like it but wouldn't trade my AY in for one. If I were in the market for a new C8 I'd definitely, strongly consider it.

Not a fan of green. Also when it comes time to sell or trade, the buyers and value will be limited. Enjoy the ride it's yours!

My wife and I are seriously considering Cacti as well, although with the tan interior. Personally, I love the color, but to each his own.

In a case of it being a very small world, we are also in Lenoir City, Tom! Are you related at all to the Greer’s who started up the furniture store in Loudon?

Thanks ...... Tom Geer in Tennessee .

Looks good with silver wheels. I would have ordered the body-colored side vents as I don’t think Cacti and Black look good together.
