Hi guys,

What are the exterior color options for the 2002-2004 z06? Anyone have a website link with pics of all Z06 exterior colors? (high quality pics?)

thanks!

For '02 and '03 the colors were torch red,black,silver,yellow and electron blue.For the '04's the colors are the same except for electron blue being replaced with LeMans blue and that is only available on the commerative edition model.Go to some of the corvette websites to find pics of cars in these colors.My Z06 is white which was made the first year only and only in a small number.Interiors only come in solid black or black/red combination which is also known as mod red which is what I have.

Its too bad they never offered Magnetic Red Metallic for the Z06, or Spiral Gray. Those would be two high selling colors, if you ask me

If its the dark metallic red, its Magnetic Red Metallic (Pre 04 it doesnt have the II designation). Im pretty sure its the same color the 50th Anniversary Corvettes were offered in, although they changed the name to Anniversary Red Metallic i believe for the 50ths.

The Anniversary red and magneti red are not the same colors. The Annicersary red is a little faltter....doesn't have as much glitter in it. Also, in 97 and 98 they had a Carmine red which was a little different than Magnetic red but not much. Back to the topic......the whole idea behind the ZO6 was to offer a decent performer at as little cost as possible. That is why you don't get all the color choices. Gm's attitude is that if you want all the gay colors, then a ZO6 is not for you.
