Red Mist Is Explosively Beautiful In The Sunshine

[John]

A huge thanks to our “455SDguy” for his pictures and to Alan Gullett at ValMark Chevrolet in New Braunfels, TX for setting up this stunning car to be photographed.

Question: What of the 12, 2021 C8 colors is currently going down the assembly line at BGA in the greatest number? See below for the answer.

Not going to change my color ... no matter how long the wait.

More wonderful pictures thanks to 455SDguy. Thank you so much.

It will be interesting to see how the colors split by volume at the end of the 2021 year compared to 2020 where Torch Red was 25%.

Red Mist Metallic is the most popular now but will it exceed 25% for the production year?.

Will RMM take away primarily from Torch Red or all of the other colors.

It will be interesting to see how this evolves.

The amount of color variance in the sun light is stunning. On the shadow side of the car it looks very similar to the Long Beach Red but in the direct sun it looks like the Candy Apple Red that so many us want it to. I saw first hand the glare on the windshield from the natural tan interior that others have commented on. The Edge Red calibers and engine cover are dead on match for the Red Mist. This car had a red seat belt option which did not conflict much at all. Those of you lucky enough to get a Red MIst car on the way soon had better plan lengthy stays wherever you are headed, it is just that stunning. Thanks, Earl

I know that color preference is highly subjective and hesitate to even comment but I was expecting to see a little more contrast and 'pop' from this color in the bright sunlight especially given the official GM renders and promos of it. It's way better than LBR but I'm now refocusing back to Black or ELB for my upcoming order. I guess I've been thoroughly spoiled by my DSOM.

I think you should see this color in person like I did early this morning. It does pop. I used a 16mg camera and tried to my best rookie photography but in the hands of someone who knows what they are doing I think you will see that pop you are looking for. The short time I had this car to myself in back lot I had line of people trying to get a look at it. The one big question I have is will Chevy develope a Red Mist color option for the interior. By the response so far I would be shocked if they didn't for 2022.

This color looks like it matches edge red better than long beach red did.

[455SDguy]

It does match very well.

That's what seems to be lacking at this time a good interior color option.

If I could get a DSOM C8 I'd not have spent a minute thinking about color.

I swear every time I see a new pic of that color it looks different. Seems like that latest photos I’ve seen have more of a cinnamon vibe while the first ones came off as maroon. I really wish I could see these in person.

That’s what I’m ordering but I’m on the fence. It’s not that they don’t go together as that seems to be Ferrari’s go to color combo.

I think if you go with the 2LT natural interior it will look great. The natural dash is what I don't care for in the sun especially.
