If you really want to do something unique, find a local place to make you some stripes and pick a truly custom color. Lime Green, or Purple, or something.

Thanks to everyone for your comments. Opinions are almost evenly divided, which I sort of expected. However, what is clear is that no one appears to think the white/orange would be a big mistake. Now I have 3 months to ponder.

I really like it. I see C7's day in day out, the more unusual color combos always tend grow more on me. The white with orange is tasteful, and it has some history behind it too. Stick to your guns with this choice.

If you told me without the picture, I probably would have said no but really looks good. Maybe see if they can do stripe wraps? Change colors every year.

I found these pics online as I am looking for a new Vette myself. I thought they might help you out a little.

I like the orange stripe on white (see post # 1).
If still deciding...yes, "reminisce-able" even classic.
Further, for personalization some orange in the interior is now a possibility.

orange calipers
I'm kind of struggling with this one?
If you have something like this in 3 colors, I think it looks completely normal.
-White Exterior
-Dark interior / accents / wheels
-Orange stripe
Just like my Grand Sport that's White and Carbon Flash, black wheels, with Adrenaline Red interior/calipers.. it's 3 colors.
Totally agree that an orange (or any color) stripe with a red interior would be strange because of the potential of 4 colors...
Anyway, I think it's cool and unique. As long as you like it that's all that matters.

i agree with the 3 color scheme above. Consider painting the calipers in matching orange with the paint kit by G2 to help reinforce the unique orange.
In addition, Imho, the kalahari interior will not look good with the these factory orange stripes.

I am going to be ordering arctic white and in south Florida this is the most prevalent color. In an attempt to give the car some uniqueness, I am thinking of orange stripes, much like what was available on the late 1960s white Camaros with orange hugger stripes. I have found only one picture on the Internet of this color combination so it is likely quite rare. But I don't know if it is rare because the combination is perceived as atrocious or because no one was bold enough to order it this way. Hearing the community's opinions will definitely help me decide.
