Default If you could choose your vette color?

What would you choose now?

I like the cyber gray and shark gray. Someone here did it and looks great too me.

Good question. In order of preference for a C4.

1. Bright Aqua Metallic with Light Beige interior.
2. Competition Yellow with Light Gray interior.

I wasn't really shopping for a Vette and ended up with a red automatic. Had I been shopping I probably would've been looking at black 6 speeds. As it turns out I like the automatic much more than I thought I was going to, and then red is a nice change since my Harley's are always black.

If I had a collection of 3, I'd pretty likely want one of each primary color. Red, blue, and yellow. Blue has always been my favorite.

I once looked at a 69 that was a darker gray with a black top that was really nice but I don't know about that color combo on a C4.

If I was to repaint mine, I've seen a red with an underlying blue that really looks good to me. I've seen similar on Nissen and mid 90's T-Birds before.

I am still putting polo green number one, just can't find one I like better.

For some reason the grand sport colors have really struck me lately, more so in person than pictures. So that would be me second choice.

I've always like the polo green with a saddle interior.

Blue or white, and I got white, maybe even a nice bronze with a black or white interior.

I want to have mine painted a very dark Black Cherry metallic. I want it to be so dark that in the shade the car look almost black, but once the sun light hits it, the sun light reflects the red. Something like this car's color.
