Color - effect?
I had a Victory Red 2006 C6 coupe. I just purchased a Night Race Blue C7 convertible. Till the day I sold the C6 it always created quite a presence where ever I went. Went to the Gettysburg Battlefield, people were taking pictures of my car, amazing. (This was last year). With the C7 there is very little fan fair, NRB doesn't stand out. I have noticed some people looking, no photos though. Red, yellow, white color cars would be my guess as to most noticed/photoed. Not that I mind.

Maybe you need to be personally away from the car? Only kidding. I live near you and have had my night race blue since October 2013. It has had more pictures taken of it then Harrisburg mug book..

Maybe I will have to put a bag over my head? I've seen people look, just nothing out of the ordinary, yet. Till we meet.

I too had a Victory Red 2006 coupe. I agree it drew attention throughout my 8 years with it, but the C7 draws more.
I enjoy showing the car to people, particularly kids and last week an army guy in uniform. So, I smile and ask them when they are looking if they would like to see the car. Of course, your classy and beautiful color may not evoke as much in bystanders as the TR. Have fun with it.

NRB is a great color for the C7. The way it shifts in different lighting works extremely well with the lines of the car. I am a bit biased on this opinion, but when I went to pick up my C7 at the museum, more than once people walking by said to each other that it was the best color of the ones there (NRB, AW, TR, VY, Black)...
