I can remember our New car manager ordering a 70 Pontiac, after a 3 martini lunch,Butternut yellow ,tan vinyl roof ,red interior,and the car was built and shipped.How would you like to find that on a trim tag 35 years later when you're doing a restoration.

The dealer made the manager drive the car as his demonstrator until it was sold,for his punishment.He drove it about a month and couldn't take the abuse anymore.We ended up repainting the car red so it matched the interior and the car sold within a week.

Back in 1987 my dad ordered a new Chevy Suburban 3/4 ton 4x4 in gold with a saddle interior. It arrived as gold with a bright blue interior. It looked like the Cub Scout's official staff car. I ended up driving it for 10 years. It was definitely easy to spot in a parking lot.

OK, here's one for the Corvette guys. Didn't GM offer something of an unusual color combo for the '63 Corvette? Daytona Blue exterior with Red interior!

WHY?

There was one with that color combo at BJ last year, i remember the commentators mentioning what an odd/bad color combo it was.
