It appears the vents are only black, not available as body colored.
Night Race Blue looks like Navy. I like it on this car.

Night Race Blue is a dark metallic blue. The metallic is not very noticeable on a cloudy day, but jumps out on a sunny day.

All corvettes should be torch red.

I'm sure these will be available via GM/aftermarket, just like the C6 door pulls/3rd brake light.
BTW, the vents and the rear diffuser are painted Carbon Flash, not just black plastic.

I almost bought Torch Red when I bought mine. But the darn color has too much orange in it for me. If they moved it more toward red and away from orange, I would buy it.

Since it almost 1 1/2" wider than a C6 electric folding mirrors would be a good option.

Hey Chris,
Thanks for the info. Do you know when info on trim levels will come out for the convertible? I wonder if they will do the C7 like they did the C6 initially, that all convertibles started at 1SB/2LT level?

As in the past when new generations come out, the convertible follows about 1 quarter after the coupe goes on sale.
That's all I know.

I thought that would be the timing. The C6 coupes were on the dealer lots in August 2004, I got my dealer's first C6 convertible allocation and the car came in February 3, 2005.

No all Corvettes should be Victory red, except for mine. It shall stay Torch Red so it will be the baddest of them all.
