Default Hes going Black
My buddy is going with a black on black coupe after hearing about the colors and the police. The black Im sure will be harder to keep clean. But it might fly under the radar.

KSP certainly do like black cars also. The Vette silhouette is very easy to pick out.

I have a BLK / BLK, 92.
I love it and think it's the greatest Vette, on the road,,, But it is a "PAIN TO keep CLEAN",, however I never drive it in rain or snow.

Drive it a short and "U" have to get out the "Ca. Duster."

I like my black one too, but I sure wouldn't count on that flying under the radar thing. A Vette is a Vette, and they do seem to attract attention.
