I agree. This is stunning. Why no love ever for a bright, Metallic Gold?

LOL don’t hold your breath. Torch red isn’t orange and it’s the most popular color they make. They tried messing with the red once and it didn’t go well.

I'd like to see a nice grey like Ford's "leadfoot" or Shark grey Chevy had for the early C7's, nardo grey, or destroyer grey.

I think my favorite color ever put on a vette though would have to be sterling blue. It was only for 2017 though unfortunately...

As far as what I feel is needed:

Velocity Yellow replaces Accelerate Yellow
Nardo/battleship gray replaces Ceramic Gray
A new Bowling Green metallic to replace Caffeine brown

I’d like to see a unique brighter green one year, maybe a medium/dark purple/blurple, and replace the new silver with a better silver.

#1 A new yellow, match the IMSA race car
#2 Green like Porsche Python green
#3 A deep bright silver

Black wheels are getting old, would rather see a dark gunmetal or match the brake pad dust color.

One can only dream...they won't do anything that bold or daring with the Vette. I'm actually still a little surprised that they did Rapid Blue.

Victory Red or Watkins Glen Gray would be my choice on a C8 Z06.
