Bring the on the white Z06

Yessss without a doubt!!! What is GM thinking@!!!! AGGHH!!
White continues throughout the years with red and black as the top sellers on the Corvette. DUHHH!!! So lets not make it in the Z06!! How can this decision make more money for GM??? This is probably one of the stupidest things GM has ever done.

We all have seen the White export Z06, maybe you can bring one back to the U.S.??

IT L GO quote: "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." Don't want to argue with you IT L GO... But!!!

How can GM justify killing white in the Z06 after only producing less than 500 of them in 2001? Z06 friends of mine continually tell me how they wish GM would bring white back. Just my opinion.

As the owner of an original SW/MR 2001 that was totaled by a 17 year old that decided to make a left turn into me in a Mountaineer, I would order a white C6 Z06 in a heartbeat if it were offered. I miss my white Z06! I too am having a hard time understanding why they cannot offer the car in all the available colors. Let everybody have what they want!

Also, I liked my Mod Red interior in my SW 01. Note to GM: quit trying to copy Ferrari and the Viper with the stitching thing. You are building 7000 cars a year, give us some interior choices. Porsche, Ferrari, and Viper charge for it...and build less cars per year, so why can't Corvette do the same?

The reason they stopped making White is that they were not receiving enough orders. What I don't understand is there mentality of only offering the Z06 in 6 colors instead of all available Corvette colors.

Mr Go:

The z06 will be offered in six colors, not 5. Machine silver, Victory red, DSOM, LeMans Blue, Velocity yellow, and Black.

How about regular orange and white. DSOM has nothing to do with orange...it is bronze.

All you have to do is look at Joe's No Mercy and then vote yes to have white as a choice

I happen to really like the Sunset Orange and don't particularly like white cars. Then again, the '88 35th anniversary cars look great and so do the white '01 Z06's. But I still voted no.
