This might not be anything special...

but I saw a C6 on the road today for my first time... cranberry red with a top convertible top. I must say, it looked sweet

I'll add something since it falls under this thread's subject.

Though I haven't seen a C6 in preson yet. I picked up a 1:18th scale diecast model of a C6 yesterday made by HotWheels. I must say judging from the model I love the line of the C6, plus I got it in this awesome blue color. My guess would be its Eletron Blue or Xenon Blue, I am not sure what Blue they are using for the C6 but its pretty cool. Hot Wheels did an excellent job with detailing this model inside and out.

It's LeMans Blue Metallic... same blue that is on the 2004 Commemorative Edition Corvettes.

I saw a convert C6 at an auction two weekends ago, the new car looks great and has a better 'presence' than the C5, IMO.

I think it's a combo of the crisper lines and shorter length.

The interior was better as well, with the aluminum accents. I especially likes the gauge rings and 'pods' on either side of the dash.
