    Question Waiting for Blue Covertible Top

    Looking forward to "any day now" order of 2011 Grandsport Covertible. The catalogue and my dealer tells me the blue rag top is a late arrival - anyone know, when this will come out of production. Would like to try museum delivery too. This waiting is brutal.

    How many colors match with a blue top? I think it looks much better with a white top and there are lots of colors that go with the white convertible top.

    Thanks That's the one. Jetstream Blue, Pearl White Stripes and hopefully dark blue cover.Think I will wait a few more weeks than go with black or white cover.

    Financially speaking there is very little chance they are going to come out with a dark blue cover. Probably because there is only one or two colors that it goes with. White on the other hand goes with just about everything. Me, like like blue. But white also turns me on. I have jet stream blue w/ a black top. To go to an outside vendor is a good possibility. Hope your right but I would not put much stock in late arrivals.

    I agree with you. They're suposed to have a blue top coming in later? What about all the cars that are being made now?? I don't think there will be any such thing, given the economy and the few Corvettes being made now. But who knows?!

    Change of heart. Blue on blue may not work. Liked the black to begin with, so ordered the 2011 Jet Stream Blue GS Convertible today. Looking forward to museum delivery.

    Default Does anyone have a photo of a 2011 Jetstream Blue with the new Blue Top?

    Just wondered, might be classy. It looks like it belongs on the Supersonic Blue picture I saw.....
