I need your opinions. I will be ordering my new C6 in a couple of days and I can’t decide between the 2 colors. I love the looks of the Lemans Blue, but my 2004 C5 that I am selling is Machine Silver and it never shows any dust or dirt. I love the fact that I can drive my car to work, have it sit outside all day, and not be able to see the dust that collected on it all day. With the Lemans Blue I would think that I would be dusting the car every time I turn around.

So, having said all of that, I would like your opinions and PICS of you Machine Silver or Lemans Blue C6. If you have a Lemans Blue C6, do you have problems with dust, dirt, or seeing light scratches?

Thanks for your help!

If you want low maintenance get the silver. The blue is almost as hard as black to take care of but I love it.

I say LB. But, silver shows off the lines of the car better, and shows less dirt. Too many silvers out there in my opinion. LB is not as common.

I have no opinion on this. I don't even remember which color my car is. I don't remember where I parked it either.

I know what my choice would be.

My C5 was MY and I wanted a change so I got LeMans Blue. I think it's a great color and gets tons of looks. You are getting a C6 though so you can't go wrong no matter what color you get.

LMB all the way. Sporty AND classy. There have also been studies that show it is by far the fastest color......heard of the blue devil.

NEXT QUESTION?

Had the same thoughts on colors. Currently own two silver vehicles and wanted something different. Done many blacks so...... after seeing a polished Lemans Blue in the bright sun I decided to order the Lemans Blue.
Yes, it does show dust much more than the silver does regarding the scratchs I am not sure yet.
Good Luck!

I'm in the same situation for the same reasons. I think that I am going
to order machine silver with grey.

For cryin' out loud, man...It's YOUR car. Why care what a bunch of strangers like?

I actually wanted the opinion of the people with Lemans Blue to see if they have any problems with dust and dirt. I also wanted to see pics from people with both Machine Silver and Lemans blue to make my own decision. If you are on the fence, it helps to get some opinions.

I pondered the same. Shopped around dealers for color first - then price. It was LMB -- but must admit it shows the dirt -- especially on the rear.
