A new red for the Z06 maybe, but the C6, I bet 2 is enough.

Tell me it is not true. I really liked having a somewhat unique color. But I can see why they would bring it back.

That's what DSOM is for...

BTW, PR is magnificent. If it were still available, I would have ordered it rather than DSOM.

Which brings to mind....I friend just asked me a couple days ago how I got my car on the KwikLift so fast..... What?? says I.
I just saw you over at the shopping center!! He swears it was a PR C6.

Sheesh.....I live in a little podunk community of 7,000....now I hear that another of the 1304 PR C6's IN THE WHOLE WORLD is in the same area!

Default Precision Red

I love my Precision Red /Cashmere......Have never been a fan of any metallic type of finish.....Seems pretty close to the color of 63-67 red that was offered....Saw somewhere that the new Red for next year is a rework of MAG RED...??????

That figures That is the color I would have ordered if it was available when I placed my order. Hmmm, maybe not I do love Arctic White on the C6. Maybe it was a good thing they discontinued it before I ordered. Picking out the color is the hardest part, they all look so good!
