i say do it! the worst that can happen is 75% of the ppl on this site wont like it. the important part is that u do.
thats the part that worries me, im not sure if i would like it. i mean it looks amazing in forza but irl it might look horrible. in forza i can change the paint color as many times as i want (changed it multiple times to find a yellow that looked good). either way i wish i could afford to try it out. but i cant because i would have to paint the entire interior and everything because having red paint in the door jams, under where my back seats used to be, and in the engine bay would look horrible with the yellow. so ill just get my color again when i do get it painted.

A yellow C5/C6 is in no way ricer or bad looking (IMO). Some colors dont look good on some cars.

It actually looked decent when it was stanced with big bronze volks.

the first step is to modify your car to how you want it .

Kit, wheels, suspension etc....

Then once that is done the last step would be a drastic color change if you wanted.

To paint your stock car yellow at this point would be a bad thing to do.

Im always for leaving cars the stock color but since u asked i still say I think it can work,,yellow by far isnt the worst color out there.

yeah, of course. next thing i do is going to be coilovers then after that start either piecing together everything i need for my 1JZ swap or saving up to take it to a shop to have it done. but ill probably just repaint it garnet pearl before the 1JZ. i mean it would cost way to much to paint the car yellow and all the other stuff it needs to not look like crap. not to mention the fact that it would bring resale value down a lot because its clear not many people like yellow SC's.

In my opinion, yellow doesn't even look that bad. Heck it looks good. But you definitely need a kit and nice stance/wheels to make it work. Taking a stock body SC with stock wheels and painting it bright yellow will look like a junk-yard special.

I like it personly because its a good break from the black, white, and red ones normally seen on here. If I ever get to repaint my black sc...think I may go with a metallic burnt orange color for an accent...or go the "rice" way and use a tangelo pearl orange. Keep in mind...not on the entire car....just as an accent color. But burnt orange would look good on the black

I totally agree
Id take off those ugly chrome wheels though and put some black ccw classics on there and gladly sport it. I guess most ppl can't handle yellow I think it's sick if not overdone and that one wasn't in my opinion idk haters gonna hate tho
