Is 'Viper' yellow much different from Corvette 'Millenium' yellow?

I had a new 1986 Corvette in yellow which I still think is one of the best yellows. Don't recall the name. Ed

Before you commit to a color, look at 75-77 "Corvette Bright Yellow"
I looked at every yellow I could find and nothing looked better to me

Very close to Safari Yellow on 1968`s. The Cuda is Viper Yellow and the Vette is Safari Yellow. I was trying to find the Cuda in the sunlight but didn`t find one. The Cuda is in the shade on the one picture so I selected one of the Vette in the shade too.

My Vette is painted 1999 Plymouth Prowler Yellow. I don't know if the two are the same or not. If you want to see a pic I'll email it. Let me know.

That would be "Competition Yellow" maybe? If so it looks like this:

Not sure what yellow this is,it came in a can with the car, it is a lot "brighter" than the original 56-Bright Yellow that the factory put on it.My painter lost the can when he repainted the back bumper,I guess I'll have to try my luck at a local auto body supply store for some touch up paint.
