Default Is JSB the best color on c6?



Does it warrant extra $ when selling?

Historically, some colors sell better (both new and used), and even if you paid more for a particular color new, at resale time, it's just a color, and it's only worth what someone will pay you for it.

Personally, the color is secondary (especially for a used car) to the options, which may actually be worth extra money, IMO.

I like LMB better. Wish they would bring it back.

All Corvettes are red. The rest are mistakes.

such a silly question lol






































PS. everyone knows Silver is the best color.. it's why car designers choose to have their concepts in Silver, can see all the lines better.. PLus, you never have to clean it, it hides the scratches best and even dents disappear!!!!

It's a nice color but they all are when cleaned up. Not worth more.

It's something with all the people who wish that had one once they stop making them. There will always be red.

Default Color

There should only be 3 color choices:
1. White-Classy
2. Red- Sporty
3. Black-Aggressive
Which one do you want to be ?

I find JSB to be too flashy.
I prefer my SSB instead.

Or, Chevy could do like Henry Ford, regarding the Model T: "You can get any color you want as long as it's black."

There is no such thing as "best color". Color choice is a simply a subjective preference based on opinion. What is "Best" is in the mind of the beholder and nothing more. So in a manner of speaking everyone's vette is the best color.
