Default Color of the C7 Reveal.

What color do you think the C7 reveal will be? My guess is either Red or Silver.

While we are at it, who can remember the reveals for every generation?

Red or silver are always good bets. Maybe Midnight Racer will be a carry over color. They just did black for the Centennial, and white on the 60th.

Silver. The best color for showing the lines of the Car.

I don't know about the Detroit Auto Show, but at the New York Auto Show, spring '04, it was a Silver C6 convertible and a Precision Red C6 Coupe. The same was used in "A Boy's Dream" commercial as well.

Silver and red were both used often with the C6 reveal, so I would guess either one of those.

Red coupe, silver convertible -- unless they have a unique light color that won't swallow curves.

Silver, of course.
Unless they reintroduce LMB.

Silver & Red, a proven combo for 50 years.

Cheers,

Red for the coupe and silver for the convertible when it follows a year later. If GM has a new fangled color, maybe that new color may be used.
