Re: change color to competition yellow?
Ok here is an update. I found a Yellow 91 but I think looking at this car has pushed me to paint mine. The car is the right color and does not have crazy miles but on the surface it has issues that will add to its 30k asking price and may have more once seen in person. The car has 31k miles and a NCRS top flight judging award but leather on the seats is subpar to mine and the windshield is delaminating my is crystal clear, stack that on top of it's a 91 so it will not have the black belt line which I think sets the car off. If I could get the car for 23k which i think is more than a fair price it might be worth vs painting mine but I doubt the owner is going to be excited about cutting 7k off his price. I also have another question about colors, does anyone have a picture of a Competition Yellow against a corvette Yellow car which this one is.

The 1990 exterior color chart (ZR-1 Registry) does not show any Competition Yellow but the chart (Color Quantities by year) suggests 23 ZR-1 exterors were Competition Yellow in 1990 and 42 exteriors were Competition Yellow in 1991. |
Re: change color to competition yellow?
In what year did it place in the NCRS? If the owners asking price is 31K and you say it looks like it has issues than I don't think an offer of 23K is bad...
From what your saying you have not seen this car yet in person, correct? I did run into a guy at a car show that owned a 91 in yellow.....Car was not the greatest and the tint of the paint made it look like a sunflower yellow... I agree a 90 with the Black moulding around would set off the paint a little better.....As you know it's a great time to buy and if the owner had any sense he would really consider the offer your thinking of... |
Re: change color to competition yellow?
I think the only yellow offered for C4's (or at least the ZR-1's) was Competition Yellow.
For me (and I know this is a personal, subjective thing), the Competition Yellow wasn't bright enough. I chose a C5 Millennium Yellow. It wasn't an easy decision, but considering the prices of ZR-1's and other things, I figured I should go ahead and paint it the way I wanted it. I plan to keep the car a long time and when I sell it, I wont expect a lot of money for it. Mine has 70k miles. |

Here is my Competition yellow 93 beside my 95 LT1 painted 04 Millennium Yellow

The '91 and '92 yellow was more pale, similar to an Easter yellow. All was corrected in time for 1993 production. Regardless, I would love to own a 1990. I don't even mind the '91/'92 yellow on a nicely kept car. |
