This is only the 2nd time I've seen it... b-e-a-utiful! It's crazy we don't see more...

I rarely see any V for that matter. My wife and I just spend 2 days down in Chicago, stayed in Elk Grove (nice area), and the only V's I saw were at the Chicago Auto Show.

BTW - saw the coupe in person. It looks better than the web-video but I still like the sedan better. Took my wife and I all of .002 seconds to decide.

I saw an '07 Thunder Gray inside a dealer showroom a few years back, I must admit it was every bit as kewl as Black Raven. For you guys with the silver ones, you should be pissed, as not only did you get the slower motors, you got the dullest color.

JFWY, my C6 is MSM/Silver, and I had no complaints.

If I had a Stealth Gray V I'd be double pissed! Not only would it be an ugly color but I'd have a LS6!

If it was Thunder Gray I'd only be pissed cause it's ugly.

Is that the fugly blue color that GM assigned only to Cadillac, as they knew it would **** off the Vette buyers? I think all cars should be black, it would dramatically reduce the cost of body work and resprays.

Wow, rough crowd... I love the stealth grey and get nothing but compliments on it. Just gotta get the Red & Amber lights off of it IMHO.

Black always looks nice, but ive got my hands full keeping the TA clean.


Come on, even pre-blackout lights... The V looks sexy in any color

2007 the color changed from Stealth Gray to Thunder Gray, there is a slight difference. 2007 available colors were black, silver, red, and the additional cost option Thunder Gray.

I think Infrared was more money.

I think the sunroof was also an option for 04 & 05 - and included for 06 & 07
