Default Difference between Quicksilver and Sebring Silver??
I was told my c5 is quicksilver, but now I'm seeing people's "Sebring Silver" vettes and they look like mine...

Can someone post accurate pics of the 2 so I can decide which color I have.

I'm having a personal crisis...I just don't know myself anymore

Quick Silver adds the 5hp Hense the Name Quick Silver
Lighter In Color and Lighter weight due to smaller metalic

Your profile says you have a '99. Unless its been repainted, you have a Sebring Silver car.
