I love white. I have a 2002 GT mustang that is white and I really wanted to keep the white theme but the SW Z06's are hard to find with low miles; so I ended up with a QS 50th anniv. Z. I saw one that was s/c but was way outta my price range. Someday I will own a SW Z or maybe even a Ron Fellows White Z someday. Hey the silver is great as it is a low key color and cops dont notice it.

At first I thought that white was a bad color for a vette since it is too plain-- like a family car color. So I never thought about it and I got a black vette. Now I am seriously attracted to white-- I did a 180 since I think white with tinted windows looks really Chrome thin spokes looks nice.

You can really dress a white vette up and make it look very nice.

The "White List" just went past 75. I didn't think there were that many white Corvettes in the world, let alone on this forum! And I'm sure I don't have all of 'em yet!

Out of eight people that have corvettes where I work, 5 of them are white (1-green, 1-blue, 1-pewter).

For a number of years, White Vettes have been the lowest production numbers and in 2003, they made up only 2% of all vettes manufactured.

I love my White C5. Welcome to the club...

I was gonna purchase black Z06 rims for my Arctic White Vette. However, the other day when I was driving home in my Camaro, a white C5 coupe came by with those rims on it. That made it the fourth White C5 in the area, and killed my idea for using black Z06 rims to separate my car from the "local crowd".

Only 218 made, of those with a 300 speedo?
Pretty safe to say it's the only one in my city of a million people.

I thought about white but when you live in Nebraska, well, red is the only color.
