Who likes Accelerate yellow?

That is not the actual color. It’s a render someone from this forum did. We still haven’t seen the actual yellow because Chevy is holding back until the C8R reveal. Some think it has a green tint to it but we still just don’t know because all anyone has seen are renders and paint examples. I have always owned yellow or blue Vettes but now I’m not sure on the yellow because if it has green tint I don’t want it. There are other threads on this btw.

I like it. I dig bright colors. If it is red, torch it. If it is yellow, accelerate it.

Unfortunately yes. The C8R will be revealed this fall and that’s when we will finally see the actual yellow. So far every color has been presented to the public except that one and I’m really really hoping it’s not greenish like we are seeing in renders. Although you may like it and if so pay no attention to what I’m saying.

To my eyes, under the artificial light in the Chevy building at Carlisle, there was no green tint on the AY "frog" paint sample. What it will look like under sunlight who knows.

That'd be better than posting a render. Guess I gotta do a "dislike" on your Q.

Wish one of you guys would’ve been able to grab it and run out into the sun with it.

LOL. I think they are glued to the display. And when I was in Carlisle, there was no sun. Only clouds.

Ill keep saying it until we see one and proven otherwise... CHARTREUSE. Which is not to say it's bad... just not yellow. Funny fact - apparently there is the same argument in tennis circles with what color the b-a-l-l-s are, yellow or green, with yellow holding a slight edge.

That's OK, we need to see how AYM looks in cloudy conditions too. Since they're glued down, I'm sure somebody in the Caravan has a chisel you could briefly borrow.


To the original poster, the main AYM thread is here with lots and lots of discussion about it.

Why is the yellow being kept as such a secret?

keeps the intnet humming?

I believe they are waiting for the C8R Reveal hopefully soon.

I'll say it again, I love the yellow on C7 and before and would have gotten it on my 1st Corvette, the C8, but I do not like this yellow in any form I have seen it, so unless it looks way different in real life and light...not for me and it is a **** shame as I LOVE YELLOW!

Welcome to the forum mrbrans5, you'll find a great amount of good info here. Yellow is the color of the racing team and as others have noted, it will be displayed when the C8R is revealed we think.
