Interesting that we saw lots of photos of yellow C7's from the pre-production cars at shows, events, etc, but not one from customer deliveries so far . . . . .

That's my choice except I would have red calipers.

Thanks for posting!

Mine will be identical to the one pictured above other than having a Kalahari interior. I am scheduled to pick it up at the museum this Monday morning, September 30, in the very first round of museum deliveries.

Pics to follow.

If and when I order one it will look exactly like that! So far my favorite combination. Might look cool with the stinger stripe just on the hood from the hood vent back.

Upload to Photobucket then copy and paste. Easy as that. I'm craving some yellow pics as well!

Also, those black mirrors and spoiler don't look to bad. I'm curious to see a few combinations on the yellow, more so like someone painting those a-pillars yellow!

I concur, the plant manager's is probably how I'd order mine too. Wait, maybe Laguna Blue. No, white with red leather. How do you guys decide on a color when ordering?? I'd go crazy and second my guess myself.

Can't get enough of these pictures.

I went with the Crystal Red Tintcoat w/black wheels, I hope I did not make a mistake. I used to have a yellow Gallardo and I loved the yellow on black combo.

IMO the side mirrors should have been yellow also.... and does anyone else think the inside of the headlights should be painted a gloss black instead of flat black?

I'm a fan of clean looks, but this C7 throws off a different kind of "clean" look. I really need to see a few different combo's of the yellow in person, but it is the definite go to color. Smoked out side markers, smoked taillights, window tint, etc. look to be like they would really make the car pop. I didn't notice that the headlights were flat black at all, and would probably look a bit better in gloss black. I'm really starting to get anxious as well!

Totally agree. I love the yellow/black bumble bee look. Like blackouts, mirror covers, stripes, etc.

I think I like it with the black accents except for the mirrors:

I've never been a Yellow car fan and I'm not crazy about the black wheel look.....BUT, that car looks great and IMO what would really top it off would be the "striker" stripe from the front vent to the windshield!
What do you guys think?

Wow. I've yet to see a C7 with black wheels I did not like.

This car is screaming for black racing stripes.
