Default yellow vette

Has anyone ever seen a yellow c4 w/red interior. I am having a hard time visualizing it and would love to paint mine yellow, but am not sure what the red interior would look like.

Just don't wear a lime green polyester leisure suit while you're driving it.

I'm not sure that would look too well :eek: May I suggest silver, white or black for your exterior? :cheers:

Maybe you could post an upclose pic and have someone photoshop it for you.

Here's a yellow '88 with red interior presently on Ebay...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6168

The auction says the car was originally red with red interior, which makes sense, since I believe in '88 the brochure did not recommend yellow with the red interior combination. At some point, GM would not allow that combination to be ordered, but I don't know if that was actually the case, or if they simply recommended that it not be ordered.

I don't think I like it on this particular car, but I must admit, the mod red interior on a MY Z06 is growing on me :yesnod:

It kinda has a shock effect when you first see it but I think you would tire of it quickly. IMHO, black or pewter with red guts looks best. :)

I thought someone on the forum had one for a while. It was either a 93 or 96. Striking would be the word. I think it would look good but I am sure it is too radical for most. :cool:

Might I suggest the GS red interior trim idea: Red seats and door panels, black carpet. In that case, I think it would look good, kind of like the Mod Red interior on the Z06.

Don't do it... Go silver or black. If you ever try to sell it (for a new vette that is) you may be hard pressed to find someone with similar taste or as strong a stomach... ;)

Thanks zyal8r.......I really think all that I needed was a visualization. That really killed the idea for me. (then again it may have just been the condition of the car.) That's the exact same interior mine has and I just don't think I'd like it. Thanks to all!!!!
