Default Just in today...New Velocity Yellow Comparison Pictures

If you liked the Millenium Yellow, you are goihnjg to love the new Velocity Yellow. We just got our first few in today! Below are some pictures of the new Velocity Yellow convertble with a 2002 Millenium Yellow convertible, a 1990 Competition Yellow ZR-1 (1 of only 27) and a 1966 Sunfire Yellow coupe.



Below is a picture without the Sunfire:



And this is the Velocity and the Millenium only:



The new yellow is lighter has a brightness to the tint that the Millenium was missing. Below are a few more shots of the Velocity by itself:









So, what does everyone think of the new Velocity Yellow?

I like it, But I think the MYellow is nicer because of the tint in the clear coat... But that's just my .02....
I'm partial to MYellow. This is a pic of my MYellow Power Hardtop Vert...

Gussy...that conversion put a few years on you! Just kidding, I know that's not you. Any news on the shipping back from Florida?

I liked MY a lot and I know VY is supposed to be similar but (in those photos at least) it's just not working for me.

So, basically, Velocity Yellow is more of a true yellow, versus the more orange Millenium Yellow.

Maybe they should have called it "Hi-Lighter Yellow"...that is what it looks like to me. Almost looks kind of sun faded.

I've always been a big MY fan...still am.. but VY with it's vibrant greenish overtone really jumps out at you.

If you're going to go for the flash and attention getting of yellow, VY certainly delivers.

When I saw the VY Z06 at Greenwich Concours a few weeks ago, I was blown away by the color. It looked even better than it did under the fluorescent lights at the NY auto show.

While MY remains a great color, VY makes MY look subdued, dated, and almost street sign or Caterpillar heavy machinery yellow by comparison.

I'm thinking that you have a really nice dealership. I couldn't help but look at the background

Default Much Better -

I like the new, lighter yellow MUCH better.

If I weren't going to order white, that's what I'd get.
