Default Re: Paint color , will wrong color hurt the value

Some colors seem ugly until you own a vehicle of that color. I vowed to never own a Laguna Blue Corvette. This was a one year only color that is rarely seen. Every time I saw Laguna Blue I thought it was horrible looking. I found a 1966 Corvette that met all of my desires aside from it being Laguna Blue. I traded a car for this one without seeing the car on the referral of a good friend.
When it arrived with those beautiful gold lines and tan top I could not have imagined how pretty it would look. At a Regional NCRS meet people keep asking me if it was a factory color. The point that many people have made is correct. The car was painted correctly, I had really not seen one done properly.
