not for me, but its your car, do what makes you happy. I think I could stomach it a lot more if the seats were 2 tone, ie black with red inserts.

Well, i'll go out on a limb here. With the whole McDonalds thing aside, how many MY's out there painted their calipers red?? With his doors shut and in person I'm sure it does not look that much Mickey Dee's

I like it but then I have a Silver/Red vert. Some underhood goodies in yellow/red would help soften the color difference I think. Maybe some flames, hood liner or such.

Gotta say I don't like the yellow with red interior. IMO only black goes with a yellow exterior. But hey your the only one whos gotta like it its your car.

You guys are mean, it's still a Corvette!!! A very bright Corvette!!! BTW, I once saw a convertible with almost the same colors. It was MY, TR interior with a tan top. Boy, that sure was a sight. The owner was about 6'5" and about 260lbs. I never told him his car looked funny.
