Grand Sport Blue Lights?

Does the GS have those cool blue headlights like the CarbonZ06?

Blue lights? You mean HIDs or the blacked out headlight covers? I believe the HIDs are available on all C6 models. Blacked out headlight covers from the factory may be exclusive to the Z06 carbon although there are a number of after-market parts available. Here's just one example.

Just confirmed. Xenon HID headlights are standard on all 2010 models.

Xenon HIDs have been standard since the 2005 model year. They are GREAT for old guys like me. They light the road like no other. Very focused beam.

Actually, I believe the headlights are black or carbon fiber on the inside instead of body color. An after market supplier (Spectra I believe) has had the CR types out for 2-3 years and can probably be ordered if you want to do something similar.

Yep, found them too...

That said, I think the Z06 Carbon is actually painted black. You know I saw that beast at the Corvette Corral in Sebring recently and forgot to take a picture from the front. Bummer.

:bash

OK. Those blue lights are the Xenon HIDs that have been standard across Corvette models for some time. The surround is typically painted body color which is standard on the GS. If you want a contrasting color, like what is offered on the Z06 Carbon, there are a number of aftermarket parts that are available. Hope that clears it up.
