Default What color Corvette C8 is your top choice?
I picked a car with basic exterior options just to see what the color differences look like. Unfortunately no green.

No doubt, better color combinations inside and out with accessories can make a difference, but what is your color of choice? So far mine are 1) Rapid Blue. 2) Sebring Orange Tintcoat, 3) Longbeach Red metallic Tintcoat. For me, 1 and 2 are really close with 3 trailing quite a bit. What are your three?


Rapid Blue


Accelerate Yellow


Sebring Orange Tintcoat


Torch Red


Long Beach Red Metallic Tintcoat


Zeus Bronze Metallic


Elkhart Lake Blue Metallic


Shadow Grey Metallic


Ceramic Matrix Gray Metallic


Blade Silver Metallic


Arctic White

Definitely Rapid Blue... Reminds me of Mexico/Voodoo blue.

Rapid Blue is hot, but the orange looks fantastic too.

I did too, this was a surprise. Now I'm curious to see this color on a live car.


What wheels are these on the silver?

Long Beach, silver and grey in that order. Maybe Zeus but I'd have to see it in person. Ceramic and Elkhart are probably acceptable.

Mmm, the BBS are the 7 spoke, not those 6 spoke. Can't find anything like it. Not BC Forged, Vossen, or HRE.

Normally I would go for something more bright like orange, red, or rapid blue. But I keep coming back to black when spec'd properly.
