color code
Hey Guys..
I've plans to repaint my Vette.
I always wanted to have millenium yellow.
But is it true that there is a difference between millenium yellow?
Or is the paint always the same. Sometimes it looks darker..
Can someone give me the correct paint code so I deffinitive can say that I have Millenium Yellow.
And what is the difference between Millenium and Competition?
I need a yellow that does not turn into "orange" when the weather is dark.
It must be bright yellow at all times.
HELP ME to choose the correct collor !!!
Here in Holland there a very little new Millenium C5's to verify..

Re: color code (wilhelm86)
Millenium Yellow uses an orange tinted clear coat, that's why GM charges $600 extra for it.
I would stay with retina burning Competition Yellow, the best Yellow there is.
