Moved from a 2006 Monterey Red coupe to a 2007 Silver vert. I loved the MR color but love the MS color more. Besides, the vert is more fun to drive. I did keep all of my MR colored underhood mods and put them on the vert. The contrast turned out great.

I dont know why...must be the angle of the picture, but that is THE best looking convertible corvette I've seen.

Yep, your car.

Most convertibles seem to come off bulky and akward...yours looks very sleek.

Although it's probably because it's silver and titanium, and we all know that's the best color combo (it's what I havein my coupe)

What really sold me on the car was its grey top. A classy look with the top up. Keep the pointy end forward.

THE pictures were taken in the Badlands this past July on the way to the Black Hills Corvette Classic in Spearfish SD. More here if you are interested. http://www.flickr.com/photos/3003695...7600978820636/

For some reason the "quote" button on this page isn't working for me so I had to reply this way. :-)

We probably saw you there. My wife and I were in our Monterey Red coupe then. This summer it will be the Silver vert.

My wife is from South Dakota and we've been through the Badlands a few times. I wondered if that was where the picture was take. Great shots.

If you are in the Hills again this summer look for Florida USAF plate "FLYZ".

Cool, thanks - I had the only 08 there I think. I doubt we'll go next year, probably go to a different event for a trip. cheers

Machine Silver is the best color to show the lines of the C6.
