Mine is a Brazen 2008 GXP. A great color that seems to keep changing from red to copper to orange. All depends on how the light hits it and time of day.

On a Sky, the only color would be black or red. That's because the sharp angles make it look racey and modern.
On a Solstice, the classic car look just lends itself to British Racing Green. I looked at both cars several times before I bought. Like someone else said, I walked away from Solstice many times - didn't realize it then - because of color. When I saw the Envious, i fell for it hard. Was a Solstice owner immediately after.
Now that I've owned a while, I have come to appreciate and admire the other colors, particularly, red, yellow and black, but still favor my Envious.
Wouldn't it be great to have a few to choose from. If I could, I'd have a Yellow GXP, a Black Sky and a Red Opel in my stable as well.

Mean Yellow. My 1st choice was the green with tan top but I went for a leftover 07 to get in on the incentives. I have absolutley no regret ending up with yellow. I'm likin it more every day!

Emeralds are a rare jewel that everyone is envious of thats why they're so rare, and I like it that way. Every other Solstice I've ever seen is either black, red, or yellow. Have fun being the same as everybody else.
