thats great information to know. I love the MY on my 04 cpe. I have never had a yellow car so this a real change. I drove it across country this summer and got positive comments every where I went.

I was sitting in a cafe one afternoon eating lunch by myself and a couple came in and the woman was complaining about the school bus parked in the lot, my Vette. She kept on it, finally, I cleared my throat and said, Takes a special person to drive a yellow Corvette. Her hubby listens, and smirks,,,you could tell he never got an word in with her around, and he enjoyed watching her eat crow.
