The dark grey they have is sharp... I like the green and black too

I'm definitely not doing black again, not in Florida. Vehicle gets too hot and with how much it rains, you're washing the car every other day.

Laser Blue is nice, as is the Deepwood Green. So is Cajun Red.

Looking at the dimensions though, I think my late 80s era garage may not fit it...

Just ordered my 2018 ZR2. In Kinetic Blue!!! Bose, Bed cover, black bow ties, and Nav.

So for everyone concerned about FE on the ZR2s, I'm seeing a lot of Duramax owners still reporting mid to high 20s.

*Camaro_Corvette* · 05-31-2017, 12:10 PM

That Kinetic blue looks so good!

What's the real user reports on the non ZR2 duramax for FE?

FenwickHockey65 · 05-31-2017, 12:16 PM

Haven't really seen any about the V6 yet...guessing it's about as bad as the EPA estimate. Seems like the Duramax guys are pleasantly surprised so they're posting about it.

Did some measuring last night and either ZR2 configuration will just barely squeeze into the garage with inches to spare. Stupid late 80s house design.

huggercamaro21 · 05-31-2017, 01:38 PM

I drove our V6 the last few days. Still getting 20.6 for 83 miles.

Mostly highway?

Love the blue.

DO NOT get the cupholder and footwell lighting. I had to tear the center console out and apart to install it, the instructions were terrible so I could imagine a tech that doesn't care about the vehicle would do a number and get all sorts of rattles and squeeks.

Is that Cajun red? Just wondering if its the same as the 'red rock metallic' I have on my 2016?

Was also curious about the bed mounted spare; are those self tapping or bolts with washers and nuts?

FenwickHockey65 · 05-31-2017, 02:30 PM

Good god GM that's the best you could cook up for the keypad entry? I figured it'd look somewhat more integrated.

6spdhyperblue · 05-31-2017, 02:47 PM

What mpg are dmax guys saying?

FenwickHockey65 · 05-31-2017, 02:49 PM

Highest I've seen was 27 MPG highway. A lot around 22ish. I think one guy with a lot of city/idling was at 17.
