SGI has it correct.. My car is registered as black rose. I guess some motor vehicle branches are more on top of it than others...The seats and the calipers could account for most of the difference, if not all..

My B.C. registration lists the colour as purple. Black rose wasn't a colour according to motor vehicle branch.
Agree that if you are touting it as a rare colour you should get it correct in the body of the add.

Thanks for the info. Appreciated.There is one in White Rock ( near Vancouver ) at a dealer on the auto trader . Not exactly what you are looking for, not a GS.
I looked at this car when it was new at Dueck while waiting for mine to arrive..
New list was in the 96 thousands.
2017,, 3LT,, Z51,, chrome wheels,, competition seats in black,, 7 speed manual,, 16,500 kms.,, $68,888.
Looks like BDK's car but with red calipers.
Dealers # is 888 927 2059.
Wife picked the color, but I'm not complaining, as I do find the color stunning. Maybe because she knows its a very hard color to get. I even found a GS in Sterling Blue, the only color only made 1 year only.
I would be interested in a coup or conv leaning towards the coup due to the very quiet interior at hwy speeds. I have owned a C6 conv and found it very noisy at highway speeds. I really enjoy the quietness of the coup. I will take what I can find for the right price. As far as the kalahari interior, another dream. Oh yeah did I mention I want red calipers and chrome wheels. I also mentioned "Dream Big"
mine has the kalahari interior, black calipers and chrome wheels but you would not like the price...But then I don't really want to part with it...And it's only a stingray....Wife picked the color, but I'm not complaining, as I do find the color stunning.

Apologies to @rockitman for a brief BRM threadSterling Blue is the rarest colour of all,,,only 921 total C7s
I have a few colors that would work for me, but I don't pick the colors. I pick cars, my better half picks colorsApologies to @rockitman for a brief BRM thread
and perhaps OK knowing you played a HUGErole with this SBM
There's perhaps only 1 Sterling Blue Metallic in 1:18 scale

I know the BRM-GS-Vert will be a tough car to find for sale
and it would be great fortune if this can happen for you @rockitman
The mention of a SBM grand sport sounds interesting ...
do you have a "plan B" colour consideration?
Thanks for the info.I do find that to be quite a nice color. A note to mention that the convertible C7 is proven quieter than the coupe however, due to the multilayer roof. I believe it is a couple of db less than the coupe.
I like the LBRM and it would be a choice as would Laguna Blue.How about Long Beach Red mettalic?....... Yes, I'm a bit biased on the color
Is the convertible quieter than the coup? My C6 was not quiet at all and at 140kms it got very noisy. No such thing as playing the radio or talking with at that speed.Yes the convertible C7 is most definitely quieter inside than the coupe.
But it still has some road noise.

As you know ... as did mine.I have a few colors that would work for me, but I don't pick the colors. I pick cars, my better half picks colors
Very nice. Haven't found yet but I will do a nation wide search including USA as there were only approximately 10% allotment to Canada.
This Car is now at $59,888I have grown since it's release, to see the appeal of Black Rose ... especially as I do not see many of them
as frequently as I did when Brand New in the Dealership Showrooms.
Thanks for posting the ad as I gave up trying to find it after a failed key-word google attempt ... (not my forte)
I have to laugh at how some advertise something with the idea/sense of it being
special and "very rare" and hard to turn away from ... (vacuum sales).
With a potentially stink-eye high-asking price on this previously-enjoyed Corvette
and a limited listing of specs ( as if that really doesn't matter - leaving so many questions) ...
complimenting that "Purple" is Very Rare. Not even researching that it being specified as "BLACK ROSE" just might be
the BEST way to advertise it ... as "purple" can play into the hands of those few who may loathe the color of this Corvette.
It honestly just makes me roll on the floor with laughter how bad marketing can sometimes be at times... rolling my eyes.
Even once chalking it up with my YYSSW with the use of the color being "purple", my first question may now be ...
with it being mentioned that there is no major (frame compromising) accidents .... hmmm ....
"Has there been any accidents at all, like one needing it to be touched up with Very Rare Purple instead of Black Rose?"
... even though it's really no big deal it just brings humor to a so-so day ...
edit in photo clip of ad with dealer info removed ... to save time ...
