Thanks for the correction, I thought I clicked on RB in the visualizer early this morning. Anyone agree this is closer to C6 Jet Stream Blue or the old Nassau Blue? I just went to the visualizer again and the top color is coming up for Rapid Blue.Last edited by DanVette; 07-19-2019, 12:50 PM.U.S. Navy(Ret); past associate editor of Vette Vues Magazine; Founder-Corvette Chattanooga; Founder-National El Camino Owner's Assn., NCM(L).

I've seen other cars in similar shades of blue (Mustang "Grabber" blue, Toyota "Blue Flame" (really, on a Toyota?)), and others. Haven't cared for them at all. But based on the photos, this looks pretty nice, and I think it's good fit for this car. Might have to consider it down the road.Delivered 5/29!: Scarlet Fever 2021 2LT HTC, Red Mist Metallic Tintcoat, two-tone Natural w/ suede inserts, Mag Ride, Performance Exhaust

The darker one is Elkhart Lake Blue, the lighter one Rapid Blue. The one posted by Richrat was a render done before the car was shown to the public, and isn't actually an available color.Originally posted by Richrat View PostDelivered 5/29!: Scarlet Fever 2021 2LT HTC, Red Mist Metallic Tintcoat, two-tone Natural w/ suede inserts, Mag Ride, Performance Exhaust

i call it twitter blue and the two tone blue interior is the main reason it is our front runner with the yellow and yellow stitching 2nd. That 2 tone interior is wild and very eye catching. I had no intention nor did I ever consider the possibility of buying a blue C8.
Also I just noticed it is a premium color.

Here's a vid that shows Rapid Blue (looks similar to Ford's Grabber Blue ):
