Default White Corvette Owners Rejoice!!

Took a few moments to "play" with the Edmonds used car appraiser and checked how different colors were a factor in pricing. Some suggested a deduction, and others were an addition. White was a significant plus!!!

Never in a million years would I even think about a white Vette. But I've seen a few on the road lately and I must admit that I like it.

As a matter of fact it was called "Polo White"! Now all of us white Corvette owners must remain completely full of humility, as we smuggly enter the serene, and pastoral environment that represents the beginning of the one and only, Corvette Legend!

It's what the owner has or has not done to the car, how many years the color was available, how many were made and what the buyer is willing to pay.

ALL Corvettes are awesome reguardless of the color. Why has it always got to be about color? Can't we just all get along? lol
