Default Spice Red interior & Top. . Exterior AW or BS ???

Ordering a 2019 convertible definitely with Spice Red color for the interior and also the Top.
But still undecided between Artic White or Blade Silver for the exterior. I like both but haven't seen either color combination personally. Any member photos of, and / or experience or comments with either of these two color combinations would be most welcomed.

Two great color combinations. You won't go wrong with either.

Both will go nicely with Spice Red, it's really just a preference thing. However I've always liked the looks of a silver sportscar.

Me too. I always preferred silver and that is the problem. Having had two silver convertibles, C5 and C6 ( see my avatar) thinking about a change this time around. Thanks for sending photo. your car does look great indeed.

You said it and you know it is time for a change, go for the white exterior you will not regret it.

Have you considered Spice Red with Long Beach Red? If/when I buy a new Vette, that will be my choice. I have seen it in a dealer's showroom and it is spectacular! After all, all Corvettes are Red.

Depends on your sex. White is a woman's car color, Silver if you're a man.

Last I read, they dropped spice red for '19. You might be out of luck.

I guess white is the most popular because so many women are buying them. Not.

Using your logic, the I would of thought that white would be woman's car color and black man. Then silver for those in the gray area!

Correcting some typo's of previous message using your logic, then I would have thought that white would be a Women's car color and black a man's car color. The silver for those in the gray area!
