What color Corvette would you buy?

[Rain Man]

Hypothetical: you let your friend drive your Corvette and he wrecks it and walks away.

Your insurance covers replacement costs as well as any damage to the Lamborghini that hit you, so you're now at the dealer picking out your new car.

What color do you select?

Here's a convenient link to some dealer site that makes it easy to look at colors. (Scroll down the page a little bit.) If they chat you, don't identify yourself as an NFL player.

Poll coming faster than you can run down the highway holding a mysterious bag.

Y'know, I should do that.

I always thought Corvettes are for people with too much money to drive a regular car but not enough to buy a Ferrari or Lamborghini.

A little red one, of course...






I should have known this would have been one of the first 3 posts. I've been spending too much time in discord and youtube comments where no one knows ****ing anything about anything...It's made me weak.

Saw this beauty in my office parking lot back in Virginia about 10 years ago.

I think it's about a '53 or '54

I believe it is a 56 or 57, never could tell the difference between the two, but a 53/54 is a bit different, with raised tail light housings and they only came with an in line "stove bolt six."

The 56 and later had a nice sloped back like in your picture. Beautiful cars, unlike the over the top new vettes that look like something out of a scifi movie.

I owned a 66 Vette convertible for a short while but wouldn't care to own one of the new ones, but I chose red in the poll.

The red one below is a 53 and the blue one is a 57. Quite a few subtle differences.

Cacti Green.

I like how the Cacti Green is kind of understated, but also unique.

Carbon Flash Metallic got my vote. Shows lines well and would hide dust better than black. Just a nice color.

But... that Riptide Blue is pretty sexy not gonna lie.

Pretty much. It's like a budget supercar

You'd think. Not too many people running around that can spend $600k+ on a car. You start talking over 3 million for a Sian.

Corvettes run 120-170k as a rule so at least a guy can think about it without a 7-figure salary. I'd put Porsche and Mercedes in the same category.

Red. All of my cars are red.

I'd buy the old bronco color. No need for a vette

A new stingray starts at about $70k before options.
