Aspen white vs Arctic white
Hey guys i got a c6 being rebuilt after a collision. Deciding to paint the c6 an entirely different color. I saw a white corvette and loved it. Although im not sure if it was aspen white or arctic white?
The white one i saw was really flashy for a white. Can anybody describe the difference between the two?

Arctic White is the only white offered to date on the C6. Go with it, though. My dad's C6 is white. One of my favorite colors right behind JSB and LMB. Good Luck!

Artic White has been a GM color for decades.
GM does have a metallic white called White Diamond used on the Silverado, it's a $2k option, but it's pretty.

Aspen White = BMW (On the other side of the street)
Arctic White = Corvette 2000, 2001, and some C6s, like ZR-1 and maybe Ron Fellows editions C6.
(But don't hold me to these as gospel)

That's close but it's actually only $975 and it's on multiple GM and GMC vehicles....except the big boy HD trucks. I've got it on my wifes Acadia. Not sure why they don't offer it on a $55-65K truck!

'05 was Arctic White also, I had one.
Arctic White is just like any other color, there are variations from car to car due to original paint mix, application, weathering and maintenance. If I parked my low mileage, garaged '05 Arctic white next to a high mileage, parked outside '05 Arctic White they would appear to be different colors. That's why Body Shops get the high $$ for color match and blending paint jobs.

It makes no sense at all that the most expensive truck GM makes (GMC Sierra Denali HD) is not available in White Diamond. I wanted it on my new one but of course I settled for Summit White. It's avilable on 1/2 ton trucks. Go figure GM!

2001-2003's were Speedway White. Now that was a beautiful Creamy white!
