I bought my C5 in great mechanical, not so great cosmetic shape. The paint's scratched and the body's lacking. I'm looking to get my car repainted and personally I (don't) like torch red. Don't tell my buddies. I'd love to see some of ya'll's paint: OEM or not. I'm not well-versed in the color spectrum of cars, but right now I'm liking Magnetic Red and Admiral Blue. Anyways, please feel free to share some shots of your colors!

Thanks.

I have so many photos of Corvettes and other cars I painted it would 'crash' the forum's server....so..I can say this...just like I tell my customers who may be 'on the fence' on a color choice.

Pick the color YOU LOVE and will ALWAYS be happy to walk up and open the door on. It is ...(literally) as simple as that.
