The new Cyber Gray color

The changes for 2009 were revealed and included a new steering rack with variable ratio, two buttons on the left spoke of the steering wheel for the new bluetooth feature, steering wheel audio controls are now standard equipment on all Corvettes, and 1LT trim available on convertables. There are a few other minor changes that I forgot (I should have taken notes) but thats about it. Of course there are the new colors (A new silver and gray) and some new colors in the custom leather wrap. But it is nothing like last years changes. And I must say since I am picking up my New 2008 on Monday I'm not too upset about not getting an '09.
 
First off...Welcome to CAC!!!

I was there at the Bash today too, lot's of great cars...have pic's to post soon, probably won't get them up tonight though. Had a blast just hanging out for the day with VettBoy and his friend (sorry I can't remember your name! lol)

Have fun with your new baby when you get it, and post up a couple pics of it for us!
 
Can you confirm that the car shown is a Cyber Gray Z06 with comp grey wheels? That's what I am planning to order and want to make sure. Thanks.

This car was sitting in the area with the 09's and the yellow ZR1 where they had all the new stuff staged, so I can't say for sure 100% but I believe Mid Lyph is correct with the new wheels and color. It definitely looks like the Cyber Gray. I was looking through my pics and apparently didn't shoot hardly anything of the center circle right in front of the NCM, couldn't even pick it out of the background of any shots. It's certainly not the silver though if that's what you might be wondering about. The new silver (switchblade silver I think?) was a very light silver color, kind of a dull/flat finish with not much of an obvious metallic content to it...the gray I really liked, the new silver didn't do anything for me.
 
Yes, that is definately Cyber Gray and the new wheels (Harlen called them "the spider wheels") in competition gray. They look great in the pictures, but absolutely awesome in person.
 
Did you happen to notice these?

There was a vendor at SEMA this year that was showing Carbon Fiber wheels, just like those. Don't know if it's the same company though. I would love to have a set of CF wheels for my ride! I bet they are like 2k each though. :(

Do you happen to have pics of the rest of the car?
