the new Monterey Red is a shade between the 2003 50th Anniversary Red and the Magnetic Red GM has offered on the Vette since 2000 or so....the pictures do not do the color justice...

Heck of a good color seen one at a car show coupla weeks ago! Even though I'm not a big Chevalay fan, I am here to tell you that the Corvette is one of the best values on the market. 0-60 in 4.5 seonds and 28 mpg on the highway? You can't name another car that will do that!

Tangled-I took my Tahoe in for service yesterday at our local Chevy dealership and saw a new Corvette in a bronze color. I have never seen that color on one before. I kept staring at the car not knowing if I loved the color on the Vette or hated it.

I think that color is called Daytona Sunset Orange....I have seen a few, but not sure if I really like the color either...I really liked the new red on this Vette....the new owner was picking it up within the hour of my visit ...

Unless you consider the Mustang at 0-60 in 5.1, nearly the same MPG and at half the price of a vette....

Nearly looks like a candy paint job. The general hit on a great color.

I seriously doubt you can buy a 'Stang for 25 thou that will go 0-60 in 5.1....and I even more seriously doubt it will get that kind of mileage.

That looks like the color of my motorcycle. Very close. I keep thinking a Prowler would look great in that color.
