Possible leak of 2021 colors showing a new red and new silver.
*HOPING SILVER FLARE MATCHES C8.R*
 
Think maybe the C8SILVER. ITS NOT AS COMMON AND WOULD LOOK GREAT WITH YELLOW CALIPERS AND YELLOW SEAT BELTS , WHICH IS HOW I ORDERED MY SHADOW GREY BUILD WITH GLASS ROOF . HIGH WING PAINTED SAME AS CAR AND BLACK CFP MIRRORS AND BLACK ROCKER PANEL EXT AND FRONT SPLITTER WITH SPECTRA GREY WHEELS. THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I ORDERED MINE !! WHAT YA THINK ?
 
Might need to start a 2021 thread, carbon fiber high wing and side scoop, standard wireless Apple carplay, mag ride stand alone Z51 not needed
 
WoW ... No more Long Beach Red .......
now thats a 2020 worth having now in
perhaps in the 3LT .... a few in the states but not many (i think)

View attachment 37957Thanks Gilles27, all this does is provide me with more questions and uncertainties. Another reason I would want a 2021, would add mag ride and change colour or possibly add a racing stripe as well. GM will be in a difficult position if they cannot build all the event 3000 orders as MY2020. If they can’t, they must decide if they price protect all the unbuilt MY2020 event 3000 orders and turn them into MY2021’s. There will most likely be a price increase for new MY2021 orders. My preference is; only if I’m price protected is to hope my order is switched into a MY2021. Perhaps 2020 HTC may be rare depending on how many are actually built. I would then add a couple of new options to my order and receive my 2021 C8 in September 2020.
Has anyone asked their dealer this specific question?

THE FLARE SILVER LOOKS LIGHTER THAN THE SHARK GREY
Maybe a touch - but, as I said: "close to the same"; I did not say: "the same". I do like the color and I love my color - it looks awesome - I get many compliments!!

2021 Corvette Options and Two New Colors Leaked


It was just last week that our own Alex Sommers was asking when we would learn about the changes to the 2021 Corvettes and the answer is sooner than GM expected. Late Saturday night saw the options posted to a C8 Corvette Owners Group on Facebook and they quickly exploded across the popular Corvette forums. The leak is credited to Aaron Adams of Sims Chevrolet and to us it reads much like the Order Guide summary that shares additions and deletions to the new model year.

The big news is that two exterior colors, Long Beach Red and Blade Silver, are being swapped out for a new Red Mist Tintcoat (GPH) and Silver Flare (GSJ). The rumors are that Red Mist is similar to a Magnetic Red Metallic and Crystal Red Metallic, while Silver Flare could be hiding in plain sight on the No. 4 C8.R. There has been some speculation that the new Silver Flare is what we’ve been seeing on the No. 4 C8.R race car. Chevy and Corvette Racing did that back in 2016 with Corvette Racing Yellow so it wouldn’t surprise us if they did again.
Inside the car, two new seat combos in 3LT are on the horizon. They are (HFC) Trim Suede Strike Yellow/Sky Cool Gray and (HT7) Leather Jet Black with Sky Cool Gray. Chevy is also bringing a new Wireless CarPlay that will be standard on 1LT/2LT/3LT packages and you can add WeatherTech all-weather floor liners with a Jake Logo.
Another major change is one that Chevrolet will uncouple the Magnetic Selective Ride Control from the Z51 requirement so that it can be ordered as a standalone option.
Chevrolet is also bringing a slew of new racing stripe colors with seven full-length stripes and four Stinger graphics offered for 2021:
  • Full Length Racing Stripe – Orange
  • Full Length Racing Stripe – Red
  • Full Length Racing Stripe – Yellow
  • Full Length Racing Stripe – Carbon Flash
  • Full Length Racing Stripe – Sterling Silver
  • Full Length Racing Stripe – Blue
  • Full Length Racing Stripe – Midnight
  • Stinger (Center Hood)
  • Stinger Stripe – Carbon Flash / Edge Yellow
  • Stinger Stripe – Carbon Flash / Midnight Silver
  • Stinger Stripe – Carbon Flash / Edge Red
More carbon fiber accessories are coming in 2020. The LPO High Wing and Door Intake Trim will be available in Visible Carbon Fiber. Unfortunately, the 5VM Visible Carbon FGround Effects are currently unavailable so it looks like that constraint will continue into the 2021 model year.
Corvette C8.R

Chevy will be offering a C8.R printed car cover for 2021, but we think there is something more in the works. The leaked document calls for a “Stingray R” theme which has us strongly believing that a special edition or design edition is waiting for Corvette buyers in 2021 and for this, we may be able to connect some recent “dots” that showed up on our radar.
At the beginning of March, Chevrolet attended the Work Truck Expo and one of the interesting displays featured this 2020 Corvette Stingray dressed up as the Gray C8.R. However, that car was really just a Silver Stingray with a Yellow Racing Strip and IMSA graphics.

Our friend Travis found this image back in February that lends even more credence to Chevy offering a C8.R graphics package for the Stingray. This image appears to come from the Chevy visualizer and it shows a Silver Stingray with Yellow graphics in the same places as they appear on the race car. For us, we believe it makes sense for Chevrolet to focus on a “C8.R replica” as owners are very passionate and supportive of the race team and they want to dress up their Corvettes to look like those on the track.

Thanks for posting. I myself am not a stripes guy: the less on the car the better for me actually. I like (on my car) rocker panels and spoiler in black and as matter of fact, might remove the "corvette" name from the back of the car. To each his own!! Great post - thank you again!!
