"nothing looks better than a clean black corvette, and nothing looks worse than a dirty black one!"
here's a couple shots of my black C5Z. I was really **** about that car - I spent so much time keeping this thing "showroom," it just got to be a PITA. traded it in on a white C6 - of course, I was **** about that thing too.... come to think about it, I'm **** about all of them. gawd, I need help -
When I tried to sell my dark rose metallic (metallic barney purple) C4, I actually engaged another seller on Craigslist with a Polo Green C4 joking about how many tire kickers he was getting and who would sell their unpopular color first.

I did sell mine in the 3rd month of fielding inquiries from tire kickers and people who 'only had $4700' on my $6500 '95. The price and miles were great, but I bought it cheap and sold it cheap because it was purple. I would say one in 5 potential buyers are down for a less popular color.
I even had one guy get all excited about it when I had it parked outside work about 1/2 an hour before dawn and then when the sun rose he realized it was not black
you ever notice how bad spelling has gotten in the past couple years since the iphone came out? used to be bad spelling was the sign of a bad speller. now everyone spells poorly thanks to technology...
To the OP: C4's take a while to sell sometimes. Be patient. I doubt its the color.
As for me, blues and reds are where its at. I like silver/charcoal/black as well, but there's just something about a red or blue Corvette that gets my blood pumping more than the others.

It took me about a year of searching for the right car, but Admiral blue is such a dramatic color - it was worth the wait.
When I first signed up to this forum a couple years ago, I spotted yours and sat there and stared for like 10 minutes. Now I have one. I guess that says something.

Maybe have it plastidipped in red or blue?
Don't do it! That is a beautiful car and one of my favorites on the Forum.
We have been selling all our "stuff" here in Michigan. When the house is sold we are moving to Kingman, AZ. If we were already there then I would be looking at your car - especially with the price drop. It has been well loved and maintained. Any prospective buyers out there would save money on yours by not having to dump thousands into it like 90% of them out there. I think the high mileage stops the non-savvy buyers.
I would also love to buy Zelement's old 91 but someone is going to snap that one up soon.
