    Fun fact: A group of stingrays traveling together is called a "fever"

    Seems pretty fitting to me! That blue one is giving me a fever right now!

    Source: http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Stingray
    Their stinger is a razor-sharp, barbed, or serrated cartilaginous spine, which grows from the ray's whip-like tail (like a fingernail), and can grow as long as 37 centimeters (about 14.6 inches). On the underside of the spine are two grooves containing venom-secreting glandular tissue. The entire spine is covered with a thin layer of skin called the integumentary sheath, in which venom is concentrated (Meyer 1997). The venom contains the enzymes 5-nucleotidase and phosphodiesterase, which breakdown and kill cells; and the neurotransmitter serotonin, which provokes smooth-muscle contractions (Layton 2008). This venomous spine gives them their common name of stingrays (a compound of "sting" and "ray"), but the name can also be used to refer to any poisonous ray.
    Stingrays may also be called the "whip-tailed rays," though this usage is much less common.
    A group or collection of stingrays is commonly referred to as a "fever" of stingrays.

    Blue one must have some options above standard on the red, I see it has a different rear spoiler, like the one on the black Z51.

    That was a cool video, I liked watching that black one zip by him from the light. Props to the video guy for doing that crazy U-turn to get into the lot, lol.

    Torch Red is non-Z51, the other two are Z51s.

    The blue appears to be very similar to this 1970s shade.

    Personal favorite blue.

    I was praying there would be an option without the funky 80's glue on spoiler. Fingers crossed.

    Yes, it does. Actually, I see quite a lot of C3 inspiration in the new Corvette.
