Default Fox news yellow 'Vette!

I've owned 3 911s and now have an R8V10 but damn if that Yellow 'Vette on Fox news for the Motor Trend Car of the Year ad wasn't amazing!

Even got me to go to the configurator:

Velocity Yellow screams from a mile away--as well as showing off the lines of the car. Looks very exotic. My previous C6 was Velocity and I still miss it (though I could do without the bees it tended to draw, lol). If I were in the market now, it would honestly be a very tough decision though. All the colors look good

The C7 really looks good in yellow... The Caddy looked good also.

I think Elisabeth wanted that Vette.

Hmp...doesn't look like a C7 Corvette to me. But then, I don't watch Fox News either.

I was on here years ago but can't remember my screen name...many many years...

I'm thinking about a deposit on one and it'll come when it comes.

I should add that my father had a two tone '87 (got it when I was 12) and I loved that car. Used to wash it all the time, then we'd go for a ride with the roof panel out. Eventually I was old enough to drive it and that was great too...used to embarrass Ferrari F355s on the racetrack...until a braking zone that is;-)

I also want to make it clear that I've always regarded the 'Vette as underrated and hate the ridiculous criticism of the small block V8. Throw in the modern materials and you have a thoroughly modern sports car.

Actually I think to call Fox News "News" is misleading considering it is mainly a channel stating the Republican position. Fair & balanced, yeah right!

Totally agree, most of us go to the Forum to read and be informed about our Vette hobby, let's not get into a political debate here!
