said it before. that's one of the sharpest vettes on here. My 92 is blue, a colar that about everyone likes but yours and the yellow ones are what really do it for me. much shaper then the standard red ones.

Turquoise was Always one of my favorite colors on the C4. I would love a Callaway in that color with the Aerobody. I think they would stand out at car shows.[QUOTE=Kmcoldcars;1588343421]I bought a 1992 Black Rose Corvette. I recently sold it at my asking price to the first person who looked at it. This was a while after I bought my 1991 Bright Turquoise Metallic.
Black Rose is a beautiful color.
I really like the Bright Turquoise, which is a different color from the Bright Acqua.
My first modern Corvette was a 1991 Steel Blue Metallic, another somewhat uncommon, very beautiful color. I also sold it to the first person who came to look at the car.
Funny thing - my choices came down to a Rose one and an Aqua one. I chose the Aqua, and I've never had a moment of disappointment. It's a very unusual color and stands out in the crowd. Maybe it stamps it as being "early 1990's" but heck, that's what she is.
Don't worry about driving a "purple car" - Black Rose is one of the most beautiful colors out there. And you'll never have to go down a row of Corvette's trying to figure out which one is yours!
When I was looking for a vette I knew the only colors I DIDN'T want were red or black. Not that I have anything against but they seem to be pretty dominant colors and I wanted something a bit different. After a lot of searching I found my aqua and couldn't be happier. I've seen a few dark rose cars in person and they're very sharp and I like the "uniqueness" factor of a car in an uncommon (unpopular?) color
*another shameless self promotional pic here*
Black Rose Metallic was used from 1992 through 1994. The 1995 and 1996 color was Dark Purple, which was actually not as dark as Black Rose. The above car is a 1995-96 Dark Purple.
I remember the 3rd gen camaro had a dark metallic purple called "Purple Haze" in 1992. I wonder if it was the same as dark rose on the vettes. At the time I really liked it, but bought red for resale value.
