I present..worlds first carerra white Z06!!

OK, we all know my trademark....white cars with black roof, mirrors, wings, etc.... (NSX, ferrari, Vette, Porsche, Mercedes, Lexus (yes, lexus)...and now!!!! y 2006 VY Z06!! I went with 2007 Porsche Carrera white (I also am fortunate enough to have a 997tt in the same color)...and for the vette, added Porsche gloss black to the roof, targa bar, mirrors, hood and nose section!!! I added GM OEM chrome mesh to snout and front intakes....
Better pics to follow...so, what do you think?? I dont care about resale (though the paint job is 100 times better than factory.no orange peal..ENTIRE car dissasembled for this... OSTEEN paint did it...and as usual, SPECTACULAR!!!!)
Let me know whatcha think1 I LIKE IT, i LOVE IT..DID IT FOR ME! No haters! Resale, round peg, round hole..both the Porsche and the Corvette are both stage IV, both over 700hp, so, I have it covered there as well...both cars have competition level audio systems, bluetooth, nav, Sirius, and without a single but to the car... I am a lucky man!

Love the white on the Z...not too crazy about the black with it. You hit the nail on the head with the orange peal in the factory paint jobs. Mine isn't too bad but its certainly in there.

Anyway, congrats on two awesome machines sitting there.

I think the Vette looks very cool, and I really admire your passion and enthusiasm!!

Would you mind telling us, ballpark, what the paint job cost?

Porsche has two black eyes!

And the hood/front bumper are too much on the Z06... I'd have done those in white.

I like white with black accents though!

no offense but that looks a little strange

i would suggest you paint it all white, or at least paint the hood and bumper white as well

Echoing what others have said, it looks unfinished without having painted the bumper white. Like around the headlight surrounds, it's only white where the fenders are, then it ends. I think it would look really cool if you paint the bumper white.
