How many Arctic White FRC's on the forum?

Just out of curiosity how many 1999-2000 FRC's in Arctic white do we have on this forum? It's kind of rare color and haven't seen any on the roads yet. I'm about to join the AW FRC gang soon, so I'm looking for an inspiration to get this high mileage 1999 back in to the shape it should be.

And if you do have pics, do not hesitate to post them here. Would love to see a lot of pics.

I have an Arctic White '98 coupe, but love the looks of the FRC. I don't think I ever remember seeing a white FRC. Keep us posted on your progress.

Had one for about 6 years. Sold it to a local guy with about 88k miles on it...been garage bound for almost 3 years now

Wouldn't mind buying it back as is...I really miss that car.

Not many around for sure. I was originally looking for one but couldn't find one and I was impatient.

I think white with black accents is the new black. Love it. Congrats on your white FRC, looks good.

Please look at this link.

They made only 315 White FRC

Do we have a rare car then?

Yeah, go for it. Just don't add Z06 brake ducts or any type of fender badge. IMO it's perfect the way it is. That's what makes the FRC so unique. Especially a white one!

I think some CCWs would look great!

I've never seen those, however I have seen black and polished/rim wheels that look nice. Maybe the best route is to decide on the style/wheel manufacturer and then have the center spokes/sections powdercoated white.

You could always go black with the polished rims, however I think an all-black wheel would take away from the clean white lines.

I've also seen the polished CCW 505As with accent paint on the inside spokes (red).
