I've not seen an image yet but I love my velocity yellow vette and cannot imagine it with a red interior. It could be a good car to represent McDonalds though

I think yellow with tan interior and yellow with gray interior is butt ugly. To each his own.

Yellow and Red are used together in signs and many places all over the world because they work well together.

McDonalds is in good company with Wendy's, DHL, Hardees, Pizza Hut, Sunoco, and Midas... just to name a few.

I get compliments on my yellow vert with tan interior & top everywhere I go. I love it but don't expect everyone to like it.

I agree with you about yellow and red working well together. That's why I said that it would make a good McDonalds representative.

I've been in business for 35 yrs and done plenty of advertising. I use a different criteria when buying advertising then I do when buying a car.

The red interior may look good with the yellow. I love bright colors. But when you mix 2 bright colors together you start to look like a circus or Ronald McDonald. Or even a sign. Though I like the circus, clowns, billboards etc, I don't want my car to look like one. But that's just me, YMMV

How about we help the OP in posting the pictures instead of criticizing his color choices?

Here are a few of the photos. Brivette, be sure to include the opening and closing IMG tags around the URL to the pictures.

More photos were posted in this thread:

BTW, I think the Yellow/Red combo looks great! Well done.

looks good, according to ordering info they will let you do override (D30 option) for a mere $590! Now, compared to specific VIN option ($5,000) that is for free!

yellow/red was a big deal in 2000, thinking they gave one away at Carlisle?

Thanks for the photo. I didn't take the OP's post to be his color choice since he didn't say so. He just posted it or should I say, attempted to post it without comment. Since I have a vert and only think in vert terms So I was imagining top down with all the red and yellow showing.

I had considered doing my calipers in red. Many yellow vettes have red calipers and they look good. But I still think a vert with all the red and yellow showing at once may be a little much. In the coupe, it may be much better since you can't see both bright color in all their fullness at one time. Just one man's opinion.

So how do you think a red vette would look with yellow interior?
