White Z06?
I took a 2007 Arctic White M6 coupe out for a test drive at the dealership yesterday and absolutely loved it.
The Arctic White with gun metal rims is a very attractive combo but my dream ride would be a 2009 ZO6 in Arctic White.
I just tried the build and price option on the GM site and to my surprise you can't build a ZO6 in White!!!
I quite like the Cyber Gray Metallic but I would prefer Arctic White.
Any chance of White being added to the 2010 ZO6 palette?
Has White ever been offered for the ZO6?
Thanks,
Zak

I still don't understand why GM doesn't offer the Z06 in Arctic White (except the now-defunct Ron Fellows Edition) or Crystal Red Metallic (except the 2008 427 Edition). The only thing I can come up with is that they knew in advance that those 2 limited editions would be offered and they didn't want to dilute the impact of giving them unique colors. Can anyone shed any light on this?

I suspect the reason is that parts specific to the Zo6 would cost too much to paint in the factory. Parts are painted in different areas and the low demand for white would present a problem in the line.
