yea, me too -
Id like to see it under the day light - those stage lights make any finish look groovy!
 
Yellow & Black . . .

Of the 5 or so colors I've seen on the C6 in Real Life . . . the Yellow & Black L@@k the Sweetest !

The headlight pods and black top vert also look awesome on the Yellow & Black Babies. :upthumbs

 
Thanks

Beauuuuutiful!!

This just may be the color..., it will go so nice with our bright red C4....

Thanks for the link.

This color makes the C6 look good !!
 
Thanx for the pix.:)
 
I just saw a lemans blue C6 on speed channel.It looks awesome.It had a power roof that was shown working(opening).....that part will have to grow on me but, I'm sure I can adapt to it quickly.:D
 
I don't know if it is just me, but it seems like the profile height of the C6 seems to change a lot in pictures, videos, etc.

In this series of pictures, especially the 4th one down for example, it looks VERY high off the ground. It makes the car look short and blunt and tall, especially since it is 6 inches shorter now. I REALLY don't like how that looks. I miss the low profile of the C4 and C5.

I also noticed in some pictures, the ground underneath the car is uneven, with a slight incline towards the front of the car (look at the proposed Blue Devil pics, which are photoshopped from real pictures), so it appears closer to the ground. It is as if GM knows the car sits too high, and is trying to hide it........

However, other times the car seems lower to the ground and more aerodynamic, like in the Chevy commercial. But this could just be the camera angles.

However these more candid pics of the vert show something very different. And there is no trickery with these. I like the color, but I'm really starting to not like the higher stance of the car....
 
I have also seen a few profile changes in pictures, but they have been photoshopped and it is fairly easy to tell that the picture was skewed on way or another which made it appear taller than it really is. I wouldn't take too much from these pics with the lighting that is provided. There are so many lights from so many different angles with so many shadows it's pretty hard to gauge ride height.

I do agree that given the shorter overhangs and if the height stays the same it will appear to be taller. It already appears that the windshield does not have the same rake as the C5 which also makes it appear taller. But I'll wait to reserve final judgement for when I see the car sitting beside a C5. Either way, I'll take my vert in Precision Red. :D
