White, but blue, red, black, yellow, and silver are also frequently used.

I always thought of Porsche as being a silver car, especially during the 356 years.

In general I think of silver being a sports car color and red being a sports vert. color.

To me the only color of a real Vette was Red. Since that was the color of my 87. or
To me the only color of a real Vette is Orange. Since that was the color of my 73.

That being said, I tend to agree with White body with the red interior.

But, any Corvette in any color is still a Corvette.

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:

The only color associated with corvette history is RED.

And white (you know, the first color), not to mention the yellow C5Rs that were the first Corvettes to dominate in LeMans-style sports car competition.

Best all time vette color 2005: Magnetic Red (see dress and car)

You do know that song isn't really about a Corvette, right? :lol:

White as THE Corvette color works for the 1953 model, personally. And that's coming from someone whose favorite color is black. Torch Red is the modern Corvette color, it just pops. Vibrant is an understatement for it. Glad they brought it back, would be great if it were here to stay.


Sure, white is historical, so is the 6 cylinder. Where's the love for the blue flame heritage?:rofl:
