Default I need your help in deciding Color Yellow/White/JSB

OK i am about ready to purchase my first vette, but i cant decide on the color . First i was locked into yellow, now im liking white( i saw the boardwalk vette), and now thinking about JSB. i need your help in deciding. Please post pics of these colors with stripes, i mostly like the GM one or simular. im 90% sure i will be adding stripes of some sort to it and like to see what has been done, what color looks best with stripes.

Well... I'd go with White first, JSB 2nd, But color is a personal thing, buy what you like and can live with for the next 2-3-4 years. Personally I get tired of seeing some colors every day. Not so with white...

My opinion would be Velocity Yellow, Jetstream Blue and Arctic White. The JSB is different in person as to viewing over the internet. It changes colors depending on the way the light reflects. The Yellow is an eye catcher and always liked them when I see them.

Yellow, white, in that order. Blue cars, as gorgeous as some of them are, do not appeal to me at all... The white needs the stripe in my opinion, and I really like white on most cars, while the yellow needs nothing!

Hmmm, I'm no doctor but you might be tri-polar ; those are very different personalities you're showing there...

Out of those three I think you should get the Blue, the white is too "quiet" and the yellow is way too "loud", the blue is a very nice in-between...



(subliminal message --->> pick black)

I'm not a huge fan of white Vettes, but this one definitely caught my attention. IMHO, one of the classiest combos available.:

White is the best for stripes if I say so myself.

Default Get the color you like!!!

As stated earlier, color is a personal thing. Why ask others what they think when the car is going to be for you. Mentality of today is too many people worried about what others think. Get the car and color that is going to make YOU feel good as I am sure others on this forum didn't ask you what color they should buy.

Yellow, Blue, White would be my order of preference.

I'm trying to decide between CR, VR, VY. Maybe Black.

If you're married, let your wife pick the color. It'll make her part of the transaction. That's a good thing. Believe me, all colors look good in your driveway. Good luck on your choice.

My first choice would be white, then blue and finally yellow. In the end it is obviously your choice, buy what you like best.

Have you seen them in person? JSB looks quite different in real life.

I wonder why white is the least sold color for Corvettes?
