Should I order silver

I am thinking of ordering silver on the 07 and I have to make up my mind this weekend. Does anyone have a silver c6 that would like to share some pics?

Thanks
Greg

According to Bank Rate Monitor, silver is the number one color for 2005 and accounts for 24% of all new car colors. And, according to one designer, silver really "shapes the car". Sebring Silver was the best color on a Corvette I ever saw. Coming back from a Wisconsin fishing trip, I remarked to the wife how it seemed every other car that passed us was silver. I'm a little different. Want to be separated from "the crowd". I have a red Z. That color is near the middle. Stay away from dark colors. I'll take Atomic Orange. It will be different and hot. You'll take silver.

I've seen the C6Z in silver and I can honestly say it's my favorite color. Silver makes the car look very sharp and classy, and besides, it's the lowest-maintenance color you can buy. You won't regret it.

All the colors look great. The Silver looks good especially with the red accented interior.

Go with the silver....everybody has a silver one. That way, my blk/blk/red will stand out more.

I may be a little biased........just picked this one up from a nice gentleman yesterday in West Virginia. The grey wheels look nice.....to me anyway.

If I was going to buy one, I honestly would have a tough time deciding between silver and blue. I love my silver Z. Maybe I'll just have to get a blue one too! The Z16 oughta do it!

No, probably not--Atomic Orange is the closest you can get to the best color (DSOM), so I'd suggest you settle for AO.
