Pearl white will be ok. I agree about the gold.
Here is my 70th.

In the last 50 years the rarest colour built at the factory was the 15 Aztec Gold C5's built in 1998. The factory built them in
3 batches because they couldn't get the paint right. Each one of them turned out different. It was cancelled mid term.
In 2015 GM spent $439 million building a new 450,000 sq foot paint facility at the plant. The ability to paint some form of
Gold on the car perhaps as an accent exists now.

$439 Billion? They could have bought Greenland for that in 2015...
Make GM Great Again.....
I think that white is the second best color for a C8 . I almost went with it. And white oddly doesn't show dirt as easily as most other colors.

typo sorry.
I’m kinda all in on my C8.
I’ve had a few weak moments on buying a Z06 (and made offers, no bueno) … considered a ZR1 for a moment or two …
Nothing C8 platform in my opinion is much of an upgrade … incremental at best.
I’m waiting for C9 at this juncture. Short of a z06 or zr1 deal falling on my lap … buying another C8 just does’nt make any sense to me personally.
I LOVE my current whip ….

There are deals. Shop out of province? Not sure how or if excess paperwork is involve for soing such?
If you had added all the $ you had and will put into your C8, you would spend the same on an generously discounted 25' Z06. Lol...
I did my own calculation and I come to the conclusion that it is almost the same $ as I would upgrading to a budget Z06. The best case scenario financially had I waited one year and just jump into a Z06, but who could of thought prices had drop into my price range. I don't know if msrp will ever be lower than now with the trade uncertainty to come.
C8 SR looks great but the Widebody and LT6 is on a different level jmho.

If I was a "Mod", I would delete that and direct all inquires to Rruuff lol...
Seeing how everyone has their own opinion as usual we could start a "pool" with half of the pot divided between those that turn out to have been correct and the other half going to CCF thereby supporting this platform so that everyone can continue to argue , disagree and speculate on these incredibly important issues....
