When I see a white z.. love it..

How can I possibly vote on just one color..?? I seriously think they are all beautiful. I bought red..because I like Red Vettes..still every color is my favorite.
You're such a slut!

Its funny for a color that lists third after Black and Red in production numbers, there are sure a huge amount of Electron Blue Owners that are on this forum....maybe our out going nature?


At the last two fests it seemed that there were as many EB as there were Red or Black......

I love EB......and EB owners are always looking for that right shade of blue on accessories....

The color (except for SW) that was least represented at the FEST was QS. I fell in love with the Z06 when I sat in an EB at the auto show in Miami, FL. I wanted the MY and of the three Z's on the lot when I bought my car (MY, BK, QS) I got the Quick Silver. I was worried about the water spots on BK, and driving a MY after a year that would just seem like a yellow car. I like the way the OE Z wheels match the QS paint. Just all seems to blend. I guess I don't really have a favorite color as long as I have a Z, but I sure am glad I got the Quick Silver.
Hail to the Z06!

I totally agree with you. Do you know why SW was dropped after 2001? Were the sales of SW that low? I think SW is a great color on Zs & would have looked nice on a 405hp 2004 before the C5s went away.

For some reason I felt compelled to vote for EB. I just couldn't help it.

I have had four sports cars in my life. The first was a Black '95 Z28 Convertible, which I still wish I had today. The second was a Whit 1999 Camaro SS, which I still wish I had today. The third was a Silver BMW 330i, don't miss it. Currently, I have my Red 2003 Z06, which I never plan to give up. I would have bought the Electron Blue or the Yellow Z, but the Torch Red with the Mod Red interior and the Torch Red Calipers were just too much to resist. I never liked red cars until I saw the TR on the Z sitting in the showroom.

I just like yellow cause you see it first in a parking lot, on the road or any where you are people always see it. But I had a tuff time picking my color cause all of them look so good.

I agree with the part about MY being seen first...it IS a standout color. Perhaps even more than TR. This can be a drawback if the wrong person ("honest officer, I didn't realize this was a 45 mph zone!!") sees it first. But then again, how can ANY ZO6 (in any color) not stand out. It is just too much car and IMO stands out even from a 'regular' C5.
