Our 1st Cacti C8

[DW Ruby]

Cacti Green - like many have said - not for me, looks like primer... But many would say black is just boring, so who am I to judge

Mine is black as well, and I think it's absolutely gorgeous.
I don't get the allure of a lot of the choices being made by others (Cacti Green included), but who am I to say?
Each to their own.

Black is really just a very dark blue!

I'd take it , but only if it was being given away. Then again I'd take any C8 if it was being given away.

Winter is here but it feels like a desert here. What do you think of the colour? I like it. It will certainly be low volume.

I personally like understated colours but the red seats is a brave and interesting choice

For the love of god, can the Corvette team please look at the Lambo color palette

I guess I could spray paint it black when I got it home.

I like ALL C8 colours!

I'd have bought the Lambo purple in the C8. It reminds me of my Plumb Crazy 71 Duster 340

Plymouth called it Violet.
Dodge called it Plum.
(I'll let myself out)

I think it should have been called Statutory Grape

Nope, It was my car. I bought it new. It was Plumb Crazy

Funny thing I found an old American brochure that does mention a violet metallic and no mention of purple at all. Must have been different colours for the U.S. and Canada. Anyway, mine was definitely plumb crazy. It was on my bill of sale, ownership and insurance slips

Not for me.

You all realize these "new" colours are just the old colours before they started added metallic to them...

I think this cacti green came from the days when Henry Ford said “you can have the Model T in any colour as long as it’s black…unless you just don’t want any paint and we will leave the primer only”

They need to offer this colour for Z06 at a bare minimum. A client of mine has this exact car and its pretty awesome.

 

[canadianvetster]

Doesn’t look like primer.
Old guys need to get their Eyes checked.
im sure the new owner will love their C8

 

[OL Yeller]

looks like grey primer to me. I just had my eyes checked, all good.

Seen a few in person at BGAP during visit; definitely not a color for me. It’s “different “ but not for the best.
Fine for a rental Equinox but on a Vette, it’s bland.
