It's got to be the Magnet Red color... not the fire red... aka, "pull me over red" but the burgundy color schemeRJensen made note about and questioned its color name. By the way, I will admit my vote is biased because I own a 2004 Magnet Red Corvette.

That a tough question. As much as I love the classy nature of my Silver, Black still holds a special place in my heart as one of the best colors (when clean of course). I think the only color that doesn't really do anything for me on Vettes is white. I typically love white cars, but something about the Vette in white just doesn't excite me. To make a long story short I picked Blue because its been my favorite color for years and I couldn't choose between Black and Silver.
Great minds think alike buddy I think my Sig picture proves I agree with your opinion. I was up in the airbetween black and silver before I bought the Vette,but I thinkBlack is defintely my favorite color when it comes to most any nice sports/muscle car. As long as it's kept detailed and doesn't show a lot of swirl marks,..[&:]......I cringe whenI see people washing their black car with one of thosetan sheepskin looking wash-mitts. Or worse yet, seeing a nice black car pulling out of a automatic carwash.[:@] Both black and white cars IMO are the two hardest colors to keep clean, but when they are clean.....they both look reallygood!

WhenI getmy nextone, I'm almost positive it will be a silver Z06.

Depends on what message you're trying to send. Elegant/classy looking, top choice is the magnetic red (burgundy) color a ($600 option, by the way). Black looks good too. Bright yellow screams "look at me"......imo

Well I love Black, as I said before, but what do you wash it with? I always use a sponge on everything I've ever washed.
