Default In your opinion, what is the best C7 color combination?

I've seen A LOT (I think just about every possible) C7 color combination. From a Laguna Blue Z06 with Red Interior, yellow calipers and painted gray wheels to a Black Rose C7 with Adrenaline Red Interior..

I'm curious to see your replies here! If possible, please include a photo or two! Hopefully it's a picture of your personal one


Here is one of my favorites: Watkins Glenn Gray with Adrenaline Red Interior!

It's totally subjective. I've never seen a vette I didn't like. There's no such thing as "best" with regard to color.

Adrenaline red is the fastest interior color!

Yeppers, it's a tough decision that we all go through when buying that new Corvette. We went from Torch Red w/black, or AR then onto many different variations of colors until we saw this combination in the wild.

Blade Silver w/AR & red calipers.

I'm partial to my Laguna Blue Z06 with dark gray interior. And both have been discontinued.

Some friends just got a new Black Rose with kalahari convertible that is really nice. No pictures yet.

I think I like my Sunfire Yellow 66 the best.

What do you want? A car that pops? One that's easy to maintain? Or do you prefer stealth or are you obsessed with the latest fads? You need to answer these questions in order to get a realistic and honest answer. Other that that, it's your decision.

I like unique color combos that not too many people order, so a couple of my favorites are Crystal Red on Gray and Torch Red on Gray.

I know exactly what you mean I was just interested in seeing everyone's car and the variety of responses! There isn't a right or wrong answer
