For the C6, there is only Velocity Yellow, but there are other yellows for different years, Yellow, Competition Yellow, Sunfire Yellow, etc.

GM uses different NAMES for the same colors on different makes. The same color on a Buick might have a different name than the same color on a Corvette.
Look for the factory color code instead of the name.

your close, VY top coat{clear coat} DOES have yellow tint in it and is vert difficult to work with, this comes from a car painter that knows what he is talking about, one of the reds is this way too.

I remember seeing a C3, C5 and C6 next to each other all in shades of yellow on one of the dealers websites. I think it was Kerbecks but I cant get it to come up right now(at work). Even in the photo you could really see the difference in the yellows from each generation. It was pretty cool.
