Nice vette....but I agree not to overdo the RED accents on the exterior. Red calipers...YES, but probably stop there.

Default Nice Car

Hey just want to let you know that I have a 2002 Electron Blue Convert with Red Interior with a black top also. From my research in 2002 they made 7 with this combination. I found this out through a Chevy Dealership. I love this color combination. I special ordered it from the factory in 2002. I was very happy and will never sell this car.

Very ! Reminds me of my '96 GS with red interior..

Actually, it's kind of funny how everybody seems to like it. Usually everybody states that they don't like that color combo.. Either way, I think it looks great!

Wish more colors were available for the Vette. A solid black interior just
begs to be modded.
