Looks nice, but as with all colors, you really need to see them in person to decide which looks best. I initially thought that I would like white or red best on the C7 Stingray, but when I seen them all in person, I thought cyber grey looked best.

One thing for sure though, at least to me, I think the body color roof looks the best.

I am a big fan of Arctic White Vettes, and I think that looks awesome.

I think it's pretty much a given that the new Z06 is going to look wicked in any color, but white definitely wouldn't be my first choice.

I asked Will Cooksey why they had never used that color. He said that they had tried but because the car is panel off painting, they never could get the tint to look right when the car was assembled.

I preferred Speedway White from the C5 years. Slightly warmer than the refrigerator/work truck white on the C6 and C7. However, that C7 Z06 looks pretty good in white!

I'm still a huge fan of the Speedway White C5Z.

I generally don't like white either, with the possible exception of the LFA


The Z is going to look killer in just about any color. Kinda hope they do an orange but we might have to wait a while for a good orange

Double YES!!!

Love white on the C7 and I don't even like white. It's just the color for the C7... but it needs something a little more special and unique. Wouldn't want my car to remind me of a work van.

Thanks for the post!

All of my cars have been black, but I'll definitely be going with the white/red interior this time around.

I can't seem to find any other white z06 photos except for what looks like computer renderings like the 2nd photo you posted.
