My white Z is a modded beast both inside and outside. However I only get compliments over the last 15 years for my mostly unmodified red Z. They are night and day in performance but somebody always comes over to chat about the red car. The color is a magnet I swear lol.

The Admiral blue Zs must see this ALL the time. Mind you I'm not fishing for compliments. It just always happens lol. the last couple of years these cars are getting some long reserved appreciation. GC

My wife calls our Sunflower Yellow 71 flypaper because it attracts so my people, young and old. Our black ZR-1 rarely gets any respect, so I was a little shocked when a bunch of 20 somethings crowded around it at a drag race last year.

My previous red ZR did get a lot of attention also... but I really like the white also. The admiral blue is my personal favorite

I like (almost) all colors on a Z.


I have red, and I'm happy with it :-D

Black car here. I've gotten a few compliments at stoplights. But nobody has approached me otherwise. Definitely not as attention-getting as red.

Someone's gotta mention it, and as we all know,
the red ones are the fastest! 😀

Red does get some attention, particularly a ZR1

I never wanted a red. Now I have a red. And I love it.
So yes, you are right about this color. It's seductive!

No argument here, lots of smiles and thumbs up when I enter a car show with Little Red Corvette blasting from the Bose!
