C8 colours

[gunslingre]

Any chance there's someone on here in the east of Toronto area that got either Riptide Blue, Hypersonic Grey or Sea Wolf Grey? And would be willing to let me have a look in person. I hear the Sea Wolf Grey might be a little green so that may be out. Having a hard time deciding with just looking at pictures.

None of those colours are the right ones. Rapid blue, torch red and accelerate yellow are the only 3 colours that belong on a C8

I detect a hint of bias.

Assuming you like driving a popsicle.
Black is where it's at.

The right one is the one that YOU like. End of story.

Of course.
Just so there's no hard feelings, I'm offering a gesture of good-will by way of this photo, which perhaps can be printed and framed.

 

[DW Ruby]

Kidding aside, whatever color works for you, great - go for it.
I also don't believe for a minute that my choice of color is 'popular' with the majority.
Oh well.

It is true ... Black rocks ... i struggled between black and red ... ended up going with red because i thought it would be easier to maintain .... ahhhh ... not so much

Of course.

I saw the caffeine in person at Ron Fellows; it looks good in person. Bold choice if you picked without seeing it but it really looked nice in the Nevada sun

I find the lack of orange disturbing <--- said in my best darth vader voice

Pretty sure they make an industrial shredder large enough to handle this.

 

[DW Ruby]

Is it just me and my lack of tech savvy, or is the 'visualizer' out of commission?
I was just looking to pass a bit of time, but it seems to load to 90%, then crashes.

There is a very good video on YouTube on the caffeine metallic color. On a dull/sunless day it looks like a brown car but in the sun it is awesome. Tons of orange and gold flake in the paint. Had nothing but compliments on it for the last two years. Custom bike builders, people at gas stations, and even a red neck wished he could of had that color for his pickup truck !!!

Here is a pretty good representation of Hypersonic Grey Metallic in a photo. I have seen it in person and it’s darn close. Not like being there of course but…. And a YouTube video comparing the three grey shades.

I've seen all the C8 colors and many have undertones, HSG definitely has green in it I owned one

It's sad that this thought even comes to mind, but it's 2024....No chance am I going to meet a 'stranger' to 'look at my car'.....Carjackings are a 'real thing' and very common....Honestly, if you are really interested, go to different Dealerships, they'll probably have something to look at....Maybe I'm the only one that thinks this way, but it's the 1st thing that came to my mind when reading this....
