The color you want.:rock:

DocKevin 01-03-2012 03:03 PM

White!

Just like the '53 ... there is no other TRUE Corvette color IMHO. All other colors still look amazing and a Vette is a Vette is a Vette!

A White Corvette is the true color though. It's how they started, how could it not be the color? :)

Nassau Blue all the way. But Targa Blue from 1970 was the best blue IMO...

I would buy any color BUT red. That being said LeMans Blue is a stunning color, the yellow has an immediate tie to Corvette Racing, white carries the historical significance, and black is hands-down my favorite WHEN CLEAN.

I've admired corvettes for 50 years. I'd say there are two signature colors, white is the first, and red is the second.

As much as I truly hate yellow, I would have to consider it the flagship color of vettes anymore. It's ugly, but it's sporty and it hearkens back to the most dominant racing program of this generation.

Deep reds all look terrible, IMO. They're lipsticks and nail polishes. It never was tough for me to make the connection when every vette-driving, middle aged woman with curler-styled hair poking through the top of a golf visor was driving that exact one- and usually paired with a tan top and interior, lol. It's the quintessential wife-edition color. :lol:

I hate yellow cars, but I LOVE yellow Corvettes!

I've always been on the LeMans Blue bandwagon. Somebody said recently naming colors after legendary racetracks is a nice, albeit limited, idea.
