I recently lost my 2003 C5 in Hurricane Katrina. It was a sweet car only 13k miles and perfect. this was my second vette. The first vette I owned was a C4, black. I had it for ten years. the black was brutal to keep clean and scratch free. My C6, on the other hand, was the new Spiral Grey Metallic color. it was a great color; however they discontinued that color.

Does anyone know how to find out next years colors ahead of time; or maybe the year after that? Should I wait to see if the grey color ever becomes available on the C6?

 

Sorry, I meant to say my second vette was a C5.

 

If you love it that much, buy a new one in a close color and just have it re-painted. I had a lot of new body panels put on my vette and it cost about $3800 to have it repainted -- it was metallitc so the body shiop pointed out it would be unlike they could match the coler and texture perfectly, so they did the whole car.

Costly, but . . .

 

I love that spiral gray, I don't see many in that color but I think it is one of the best. And as Lee said you might have to get the factory paint code for that color and have your next car painted. It will definitely be the only C6 with a spiral gray paint job.
