This proves money can't buy good taste.

You don't get it. Paris makes money from showing her lack of taste.

Of the three pink cars in the thread, I'd definitely prefer the "Pinky" Z51 convertible except I am not sure I am sold on the black mirrors and black spoiler with the pink. It also has somewhat clashing calipers (red) that I would change to black to match the black & pink theme.
Maybe she was thinking of a spot where the color yellow comes out of something pink??

All of you don't have to like the pink wrap on the C7. But I have to say I love it. Hate the yellow calipers on Paris's car.

Black is the only color to go with the pink wrap.

It makes sense with the Breast Cancer Awareness plates, and it's a MUCH better shade of pink!

Thanks, Lisa. My Aunt died from breast cancer because she found a lump and was too afraid to go to the doctor's. By the time she finally went to have it checked, it was too late. My mom had breast cancer 15 years ago and is a survivor. If one woman sees my BEAUTIFUL PINK STINGRAY with the Breast cancer plates and it reminds her to go and get checked, then it was worth it to have it wrapped. I just retired from serving my country and my fighter pilot husband wanted to buy me a car. I told him I always wanted a corvette, but I wanted it pink. So $93k later, I have this Z51 3LT fully loaded with every single option stingray. He even likes to drive it. To all the guys on this thread who said they think a pink Vette is awful and that it is ugly, how could this car be anything but awesome no matter what color? You all don't have to drive it. As long as I love it, that is all that matters. The wrap is protecting the beautiful crystal red paint job and when I get tired of all the attention it causes in Las Vegas, then the paint will be good as new when the wrap is removed. I am having the most fun driving my dream car and loving the attention of so many woman who yell and scream when I drive by. So, happy new year to all of you. Very thankful to be back in the good old USA and out of harm's way.

As for Paris Hilton's car...I'm happy she picked an American car. Whatever she wants to do to it is her business.

Your reason makes complete sense. My SO has a Susan G Komen edition Mustang - black with pink stripes - and the idea behind it is what is important, not the car itself. I don't think that can be said in Paris Hilton's case. She is - as always - seeking attention for herself, not a worthwhile cause as you are.

Thank you and your hubby for your service!

Happy New Year to all!

I'd rather drive a pink one than a yellow one. Don't know what it is about yellow, but just not my cup of tea...

Why not. Corvettes are cars of passion meant to have fun in. Pink is a fun color. Hey, if one is from Texas you could put some nice steer horns on the front and you'd be good to go.

Reminds me of a year or so after I bought my black Challenger SRT8, Dodge came out with "furious fusia", a very loud pink color for the Challenger. They had one at the local dealership where I bought mine. I brought the wife down to show her, in case she might like it. Nope. Pretty much a love/hate color. The car sold in a couple days. I ended up getting the wife a red Mustang GT convertible.
