Getting ready to order a C6 to replace my ' 99
Red Coupe. I am thinking about ordering a
Silver w/ Red interior. Has anyone seen this combo?
Any comments? Any Photos?
Thanks

Have seen pictures of that combo,thats what I plan to order in an 06 model.What wheels are you choosing painted or polished? My plan is to order with the painted wheels and wait for an aftermarket wheel that I like better. Also plan on ordering a conv. not a coupe.

both the silver/red and black / red are way cool - my first and second choices but I bought mine from stock so I got black/black - my third choice. But that red interior with the silver or black is just really cool looking in my opinion.

Picking up my silver/red vert on Friday at the museum 
Obviously I think it's a great combination! One thing.........pictures seldom show the true shade of the red......in person it's acutally a lilttle darker and for me that's great!

I live in So. Cal, and found a company near San Diego that does
Chrome wheels, ON my '99 I order painted wheels, and got
replacement chrome wheels, I think I paid a couple hundred a piece
for them.

Silver exterior shows off the lines of the C6 very nicely (much better than the C5,IMHO), red interior is nice combo...I was considering one at a local dealership, but my wife is pushing me towards LMBlue...you just can't go wrong with any color on the C6 (oh wait- maybe that "Pepto Bismol Pink" from Kerbeck! )

A most excellent and true observation. The red interior is darker in person than in most pics. I got it, and love it.
