Default opinions needed FAST!!!

I'm picking up my 427 Vert Thursday. I have a deposit on a Silver with blac wheels. I'm told I can switch cars when I get there if I want to. The silver car looks like it has an attitude and I like that. But the Cyber gray has caught my eye also. It looks more elegant. I'm still leaning towards the silver. Scroll down this thread and you can look at both. Opinions please.http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-c...omparison.html

My opinion: the Cyber grey with the silver wheels looks a lot better than the silver with the black wheels. Cyber also has a deeper/wetter look which shows off the lines better.

Based on the above pictures, I wold go with the CyberGray and silver wheels. Agree it look more elegant, as well as looking more of an integrated design.

The black wheels on the silver look liked they were tacked on or an afterthought.

Having said that, this is really a very personal choice, and it comes down to what you like best.

Cyber Gray. I like the silver with black wheels/headlights but I'd go with the Cyber Gray all day.

If you like the black wheels, it looks like that dealer could swap some on to the Cyber Gray for you to see what it looks like and sell it to you that way if you like it. If they wont sell it that way you could at least get an idea and buy diff wheels afterwards. Just my $.02

In the choice between attitude and elegance, only you can make that decision. Maybe the wife/gf has an opinion. Making those around you happy, has its' benefits.
