C6 Z06 White Color Poll

As best as I know so far, GM plans to offer Machine Silver, Victory Red, Daytona Sunset Orange Metallic (DSOM), LeMans Blue Metallic, Velocity Yellow, and Black on the C6 Z06.

I suggest GM replace DSOM with Arctic White as a color choice on the C6 Z06. What do you, the buying public, think?

Looking at a previous poll on DSOM, here are the percentage results of our members:

29.2% voted "Looks like Dog _ _ _ _."

27.3% voted "Don't Care For It."

22.6% voted " Like It, But Not On My Car."

20.7% voted "Like It A Lot."

NOTE: The total percentage does NOt equal 100%, because I dropped the hundredths from the original poll...but the popularity (or should I say, non-popularity) is clearly evident by this un-scientific poll.

Actually I like both colors. But if I had my pick, it would definitely be white.

Clint & Jim: Yes, one can like both colors. I deliberately started this poll so, hopefully, GM will see what their customers prefer before C6 Z06 production starts, and offer Arctic White......hint, hint.

Why can't the General offer the Z06 in all available Corvette colors. White didn't sell when they offered it in 2001. What makes you think that anything is any different now. We always want what we can't have.

As the owner of an 01 Speedway white with mod red interior, so glad that they did not sell. Only 352 made, about 137 with mod red, man am I glad they did not sell..........

Artic white? That would clash with my Speedway, Zippy! Give me red! But I got to say I like the orange and the white also. The orange is a gorgeous color in the sunlight. White is good too.

I would really like to see GM offer the car in White. I will get mine in black but if white is offered I will have to really think strongly about changing my mind.

white would blend in well in the frozen tundra! How are you going to keep black clean?

And Zippy since when did you become an un-scientist?

I would like to see them offer white again. I do not like the DSOM. Wish they would replace the Lemans Blue with the old Electron Blue. That is what I have now and I love it. Easy to keep looking nice! From the current options, looks like I will go back to red.
