What Color C6 Would You Order?

If you were ordering a new 2005 Vette, what color would it be?

Zippy, how about making this into a poll, so we know what choices are available?

Personally, I like Quicksilver (NLA), Electron Blue (NLA), and Torch Red (NLA), so I guess if GM comes up with a color called "NLA", that would be my choice.

Seriously, just because it's such a "new" color, I'd be tempted to give the Orange a real close inspection. Never had that color available on a C4 or C5, so Orange will soon become the only true definitive "C6" color.

Black. Not that I don't love my quicksilver (or any other color on the C5 Z06), but I truly miss black and if I was to order another sportscar in the future, it'd be black again.

I'm with you 110%

I posted this poll to see what C6 color is the most favorite....I'll use the results to help me decide what color to order, as I hope to sell the car when the C6 Zee becomes available.

Since EB is no longer available I would go with Lemans Blue. Never thought I would abandon red or black but the EB has been great from an upkeep standpoint.

I can't wait for the C6 Z to be available. I'd have to see better pictures than I have of the colors, but the metalic red sounds pretty cool.

Arctic white "less cost"
Lemans blue



GM doesn't think smart sometimes I tell ya'!!!! We all like to feel like we are getting a deal, not paying extra for something that's desirable

Zippy, Get the Orange.
I know you like Orange.
Just do it. You had red and blue.

Pro: Your right, I was hot about an Orange Corvette, UNTIL I saw it at the Birthday Bash in the sunlight. It's nice, but not for me.

Just say "no" to Orange. Go with that gorgeous LeMans Blue or the (new) Magnetic Red is nice, too.

Loved the Le Mans blue I saw at the Birthday Bash. Silver and Mag Red would be options to think about though.
