Thanks for all the congrats. It's great to finally be part of the ZL1 community. The car looks great in all the colors. Every day that I tried to figure out which color to choose, I came up with a new favorite. I was fortunate that my dealer got three different colored ZL1s delivered about the same time, plus a couple of Night Race Blue Metallic Grand Sports. Once my wife and I saw the NRB Grand Sports, we decided to take a chance on the BRM ZL1. It turned out to be a great choice.

Funny story on the color BRM - When I was waiting to for the salesman to grab the keys, another saleman walked by and said "you got the black one . . . nice". The color is very interesting in that it looks like black in certain light and then very blue in bright sun.

Congratulations!!! Looks fantastic. The BRM is growing on me. I don't like it as much as IBM, but it is very pretty, especially on a ZL. Enjoy!!

All ZL1s are beautiful cars. But if you have to look twice to tell if the paint is black or dark blue, then the blue is too dark. The car is great. The color just doesn't do it for me.

Those pics are what I was waiting for.

Now I need to see this color in person, and then in my garage.

My dealer has a SS brm car and I would say it looks like blueberry predominately.

I just had to come back to this thread to lust after that dark blue beauty again.

It feels like home.

I have a friend with a 2013 Night Race Blue Corvette GS. In direct sunlight the blue stands out but if you walk from one side of the car to the other it changes to a dark dusty purple. If you walk 20 feet away it appears to look like cyber grey (ashen grey) and from 50 feet away it looks black. The effect is kind of neat but it really needs to have more blue to it.
