With the 2020 Corvette, Chevrolet will be expanding the available exterior colors with 12 choices instead of the previous 10. Three new colors are expected next year, Zeus Bronze, Rapid Blue, and Accelerate Yellow.

We pretty much had the Zeus Bronze color nailed down after the RPO code leaked from the Canadian dealership earlier this year, but just in case anyone had doubts, a graphic of the paint chip has surfaced and it confirms that the new Corvette color shares the same GM paint codes as Cadillac’s Bronze Sand Metallic.

The current seller though says this is not a “return-to-stock- restoration project” so if you have a thing for Corvette drag cars, keep on reading!
