Default Trade Silver for Blue

I have a 2003 ZO6, Quicksilver with Black in pristine condition with low miles. I would be very interested in trading for a comparable Electron blue car.

That's too weird...my wife and I were at a cruise last night and there were 3 EB Vettes. I was thinking the same thing and then my wife said, why don't you just trade your silver Z for a blue one? That is one awesome color, especially with some nice chrome or high polished wheels. The silver theme is getting a littel old I guess! i bought my wife a silver expedition, I have the silver 01 Z and a silver 72 Chevelle SS and a black dodge ram v10. It may be time for a little color in my life! Good luck in your trade endeavor!

Looking back, I wish I had gotten Silver. My black is just a horror to keep clean. However, when it's clean, it looks awesome!

Nice run Dr.Ron. I had black before this, a 99 FRC. Yup, hard to keep clean for sure. I write off car washes, company car is a ZO6. Hehe.

There are alot of good waxes out there now that make the swirls almost invisible. I tried the Eagle Nanowax, works pretty good. There are so many out there. Zaino is supposed to be pretty good, but haven't found it.
