Assuming you are immune from the heat and radiation, what color would your eyes see at the solar core.

Remember that color is something we perceive. In other words we perceive a certain wavelength or frequency of the electromagnetic spectrum and our brain tells us “that’s red!” or “That’s yellow!”.
So, our eyes detect a photon of a particular wavelength or frequency and we call it color. But, our skin can ‘see’ too! However, we call this kind of ‘seeing’ feeling. Yeah, our skin can feel heat and heat is also as much a part of the electromagnetic spectrum as visible light.
As with the eyes, we detect a photon of a particular frequency and wavelength as we say “That’s hot” or “that’s cool enough to touch”.
Now, when it comes to core of the sun the photons are way, way, way more energetic than photons of heat and visible light. We can neither see them nor fell them. But we can feel the effects of them. And those effects are . . . death! Yeah! The photons of the electromagnetic spectrum found at the core of the sun are deadly to us. They have so much energy that our bodies cannot handle it, not our eyes, not our skin and not even our internal organs!
Here is where you question gets interesting. Although the core of the sun emits photons of great energy it also emits photons of lesser energy. These we would see, just before we died, as mostly super bright white light. Such light would blind you, but, that might not matter since you would see be . . . well, you know!

White Light, the sun emits all types of electromagnetic radiation, including the entire visible spectrum.
