Default Jet Stream Blue 2008 Z06

I saw one on ebay. I was waiting to see what it would look like on the Z06, since I saw it on a regular C6 in person already. Honestly, I think it looks too womanly on the Z06, kind of takes away the badass attitude of the car. I had hoped it would look better, but I can honestly say I don't like it.

Anyways, here are the pics (attached)

Looks a lot like they brought back the Electron Blue from several years ago (think that was the name of it).

I'm not a fan of it. Atomic Orange would be my color of choice.

Now I kinda like it....

Definitly not an "aggressive" color. It would be more suited for a Saturn Sky than the Corvette. Criswell here in the DC area has a base model in JSB. It's definitly too cream puff to me.

I'm sure they'll sell tons of them though.

"Womanly" Yep. That's what I'd call it too.

oh don't get me wrong i think it's a nice color but it just doesn't seem "edgey" enough for a Z06 i guess. i'd think a darker blue would look nice also

If I could afford a ZO6, then honestly I dont care what color it is because you know damn well you'd rock it too if you had the cash to throw down on a new one. To each is their own I guess....perferebly, Im like Black ???! followed by the Ron Fellows Edition- now that's F'in sweet!
