2023 CT5-V Blackwing
My wife is out of town for a few weeks so I put her SUV in the storage unit we rent and brought the C8 back to our garage. I always get a big smile on my face when the Blackwing and C8 are side by side because that doesn't happen very often. As soon as she gets back home, her SUV and the Corvette will swap places. Happy wife happy life.

From that angle, we have similarly spec'ed Stingray HTC -- same exterior colors (with the black mirrors, nacelles & roof) & low wing. I thought about getting matching color w/my 5BW like you did but ultimately decided against it.

The grey on my Cadillac is a wrap that was put on by the previous owner. The car's color is Raven black. The roof and trunk lid were not wrapped which gives it a unique two-tone effect.

The color of my Corvette is Silver Flare Metallic which I just love. Very easy to maintain. Disappointed Chevy discontinued the color for 2025.
 
LOL! My favorite is the shelf in front of the Corvette. Those boxes are all my wife's shoes! Two pairs on the top shelf are mine and the rest are hers. When she complains about all my tools, I just point at the shelving unit. 😎
Thankfully, my wife's shoe collection hasn't extended into the garage. 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

I was wondering about that collection. C'mon now. Where are you hiding those Pilotis???? 🤨
 
Sorry, not Pilotis shoes. However, I do wear New Balance with white socks and shorts. Does that count? 😀
You'd fit in well down here. I think those are prerequisite at the local Vette meets. My BW did not fit in well last time I showed up...
 
Most Corvette owners would have an aneurysm when I pull up in my C7 special edition in the rain with no jorts or new blances.

Your C8 and Blackwing match which is nice. The vanity platea are also unique (I like the Blackwings better).

Whats the SUV?

The Blackwing plate is my favorite as well. My wife drives a 2019 Blazer RS.
