These pics STILL don't do it justice.

No six CD player? Looks like you have the HUD. It comes with the 1SB package. So does the in dash six CD player.

Beautiful car. The Monterey reminds me of what used to be called Candy Brandywine. Magnetic looks more like Candy Apple Red.

Steve Miller was right when he said that it is hard to catch the color of this car in pics... just look at how deep and beautiful the car is under this lighting.... (hope I don't get whacked for posting from 'other ' forum dealer)... in the bottom pic, I'd be tempted to call that 'burgundy' or 'plum' almost as easily as I would call it 'red'

Self1 is right. This is the BEST photo image I've seen of the color. The metal flaked paint is still invisable in this shot. This is the color scheme of my car.

Thanks! Those are beautiful. I now have 30 pics of Monty Red C6's saved to my hard drive. I do believe that's the color for me !!

It's not avail in that color now. And if they follow the C5 Z06 precedent with colors (which they probably will), they won't add it to the list

Shame if the Z06 colors are limited to only the 'basics' -- There is no reason a vehicle can't be all three: fast, functional, and fabulous looking!

Changing my avitar right now to my Hawg on side of a road trip -- that bad boy had 54K miles, so was a good road cruiser, but also was built to be f-a-s-t, but also had a plum-n-burgundy paint scheme that was super nice for the ride-in shows...

You *can* have it all....

Steve,
This is a great pic. It is now my computer wallpaper. Feel free to update it with a scantilly clad slimmy and I'll replace
