Having a tough time choosing a color.

:/ Going to buy a ZL1 in the next couple weeks if I find one I like. Not sure on a color yet. I had a 2010 White SS that I loved so I'm leaning towards Summit White again. But I also like the Orange.

So hard to pick.

Look at the Orange in multiple lighting (inside, outside, morning, evening, night) because it has lots of different hues to it. I have IOM and love it but other's may not like the way it changes based on the lighting.

I wanted the inferno orange interior in my SS convertible and my previous two cars were white and black so I narrowed my choices to gray and orange becasue and I wanted something different this time. I couldn't a gray convertible with the IOM interior so I went with IOM and love the way it changes sahded depending on the lighting. (Black wheels look AWESOME on IOM also)

What ever you decide, your ZL1 will be a great ride for you!!

OK, sorry up front for the seemingly biased opinion, but I finally saw a Summit White ZL1 with the silver 5 spokes the other day...

Just Wow. All I really have to say. I thought it was perfect.

White and IOM both look great, but if I had to choose one, it would be IOM

IF convertible, THEN IOM with black wheels.
IF coupe, THEN White with black wheels.

My very biased opinion, with all due respect to the many who will disagree: orange is for toys and boys, not cars or men.

I was flip flopping between black, orange or red. My wife eliminated orange she didn't really like it on the ZL1 but does like it on the SS. So it was between red and black and I eliminated red because I didn't really like the black colored rear valance & front black lower grille against the red so black it was.

White is nice, but I would order Victory red with polished wheels.

If the choice is between white and orange, I'd go with the white.

Took me so long to decide on the color of my SS (six months) that it worked out in my favor. By the time I decided the plant switched over from the 10s to 11s so I got the Heads Up Display. Went to a dealership that had both colors I liked, Jewel Red and I think it was call Cyber Gray, and I had them park them head to head. Did this a dozen times and still hadn't even taken one for a test ride.
