IMHO: They need to include a green for the C6 and add a darker blue back in to the color choices.

Red
I remember seeing the PR for the 1st time b/4 the C6 were yet out. I saw it at the Assembly Plant on a rainy day. I realy really liked it and I am not much of a red person. I next saw that color when it was dry and it just didnt look the same to me.

Look at the Mustang color chart. Can they just take it back? Can both GM and Ford have a Torch Red? |
Look at the third post down for a great comparison picture of all of the red's:

Here you go...

PR is the nicest one, coming closest to a nice pure red like the ferrari's have. TR is just way too orange for my tastes.
|
A green like the sexy Polo Green from the C4 would be sweet.

Here's a picture of the only Torch Red C6, now owned by Dave Ressler.

I've heard rumors as well. I think its a good idea!!
|
I'll keep my V.red.:auto:

i agree victory red looks good, truck color or not, keep in mind most corvette colors are on other gm vehicles, don't let it bother you when you see a Saturn rollin with the same magnetic red paint we all hoped was corvette exclusive!

Know it ain't going to happen, but if GM brought back light pewter metallic, I'd be there.
Not my best shot, but loved that color on my C5. Photo doesn't pick up the gold flecks in the sunlight... http://i162.photobucket.com/albums/t...27_BalesC5.jpg If I win the lottery, I'm going to buy a Z06 and paint it light pewter! (Heck, if I win the lottery, I'll buy a ZR1 and paint it light pewter!) Dreams... :cheers: |
I have said it in other posts bring back or add as many colors as possible it will bring interest back which mean sales and include this color my favorite from my 01' an not seen since then, Navy Blue Metallic
AKA RPO 28U http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b3...DSCF0016-1.jpg[/IMG] |
There's a guy in our club that has one of the PR coupes. His car's production number 13. Personally, I think it's a much better color than the VR. I do believe it would be a good idea to bring back the TR since it would be unique to the Corvette. You can get VR on every other Chevrolet. As for me, I have Monterey Red....and it's my favorite. :thumbs: My C5 was Pewter, another great color that was discontinued too. They very seldom bring old colors back. :eek:

With ya all the way there. The redder the better. I really wanted PR, but ordered VR for my 07. In my opinion, MR and CR are decorator colors. (And everybody knows about opinions, right?) |
