01 Z TR
02 Z TR
03 Z SILVER
04 Z BLACK
05 ARCTIC WHITE
05 BLACK Vert
06 MACHINE SLIVER
06 Z VR

A 2015 Yellow Z might be nice!

Had 5 colors on 6 Vettes (silver split window & 2 reds). Last was Cyber Gray which is a great color but am very happy to have Night Race Blue this time.

Well, since LeMans Blue (2005) isn't offered anymore, I will be going with something easier to keep looking clean. Something like white, silver, or red.

I too want an easier color to maintain. But the main reason is I have Monterey Red now and if I got Crystal Red most dim bulbs out there wouldn't realize I got a new car. I think with the C7 I'm leaning towards Artic White with red calipers & interior.

My experience with white and other colors on a daily driver (non-Corvette) that stayed outside 24/7/365 is that its is not easy to keep really clean. Medium shade metallic colors are by far the easiest to keep looking clean.
If you want easy to keep clean, Blade Silver would be #1, followed by CR, LB and CG and then the solids VY, TR and White and toughest are LRG, NRB and Black.

I have an electron blue C5 right now, but when I finally do go for a C7, I am seriously considering getting an arctic white one with the red interior. That color just looks so good on a C7.

Default TR to TR

TR to TR - now my wife can say why do we have two RED corvettes, instead of why do we have two corvettes. Gonna lose that argument

Black 04 to CRT and red 3lt on the C7. Close to going white with Kali but changed at last minute. Too many good looking combos to choose from.
