Default 650 hp/650 torque interior emblem color
I always saw the numbers as red color. I bought my Z06 and it's yellow. Is this something to do with the interior color/options or what's going on? I'm just curious.

I always saw it as this


mine is yellow

Is your interior stitching yellow by any chance? Or possibly yellow brake calipers?

Possibly custom laser engraved. Back when I had my 16, my wife ordered a blank plaque from GM and had it custom engraved for me

Is it possible the C7R Z06 came with a special yellow badge? And the previous owner swapped to the yellow badge?

It's also possible it was a custom made emblem. I know rpi was doing this in the past but not sure if they still do.

I was thinking that too, but seems that is not it.

I just saw a yt video of a yellow car with a yellow 650/650 badge. No idea what's going on. The small things that makes you insane.

Midnight,
My C7.R is like Snake's. Yellow paint-yellow R on the badge.
My yellow 2016 Z06 has red lettering on the badge with white stitching and yellow calipers.

That's too much horsepower and torque. You need to share somehow.

I have a 3LZ convertible with yellowish (it's more to match the Kalahari interior and the convertible top) stitching. No CF trim package though.... What color is your interior?

I've seen some yellow 3lz with red badging... is it seat specific or something? Premium package only?

Found another 3lz and no yellow in sight with yellow 650 badge

https://www.parkplaceltd.com/vehicle-details/used-2015-Chevrolet-Corvette-Z06-3LZ-1G1YU3D60F5606930

so I guess it's not the color of the car.
