You got the right color my friend ! Beautiful car . Just up-grade the brakes all around , about $ 3000.00 & then install some bright silver or chrome wheels . Then just wash & wax & enjoy it stock for as long as you can !

i like the QS. The only other color i wanted was EB.

LG pros, cats, vararam,tune, and brakes are my first mods. then maybe a g5x3, fast 90/90, afr heads and a borla stinger/or lg 3" catback.

i like the stock wheels but i may get a set of chrome c6 z06 repos down the road.

He's got a point, the z06 is pretty bad *** already.

The color in nice too, just not my first choice. I have a preference for black or pewter. Electron blue would be a back up for me. Good looking car man.

Looks great! I prefer the black as well..but after having the Black Lotus...forget it! To much of a pain to keep clean.
