I have just bought a 05 C6 coupe and it is yellow, there were about 250 of the 05s made in vel yellow and 2000 in mil yellow how do I know which yellow I have? Sorry for the avatar I borrowed it from a forum member because mine looks like that.

Looks like VY to me but photos are deceiving. Congrats on the Vette!

Look at the white sticker on the left inside of the glovebox door. It has the RPO codes. Velocity Yellow will be 45U, Millennium Yellow will be 79U.

There were 359 Velocity Yellow coupes made and 1646 Millennium Yellow coupes made in model year 2005.

EDIT: Dang, that's the 2nd mistake I've made this year.
