I think that red is a cool color but Polo Green is a "classic" color.
BTW the Polo Green is by far the most reliable vette

Personally, I think the best C4 color was Black Rose.

Black is the best.
Especially if you like to wash your vette A LOT!

Why would you exclude the early C4s?
Because we're not cool enough =(

I can never resist the opportunity to use this quote from a GM guy: "All real Corvettes are Red, the rest are mistakes".
No offence intended to White, Green, and that ugly Pink one that shows up here every once in a while.

In the sister thread why so many green C4s, I explained the all corvettes are red saying came from a quote by John Heinrichy who said that all corvettes are red and the rest are just mistakes. If you guys want to be as cool as the polo green owners you need to have your own avatar to show you are in the red corvette club.

Whoever told you that was an idiot.
