Code 66 Copper Metallic. In 1994 there were 92 coupes and 24 verts.

Ron,
The top picture is very accurate in color...the bottom is definitely not! Must have been the camera/lighting, but Copper Metallic is not that color.

Yes it is a rare color...I have never seen a 94 in copper in person up close....I have passed some earlier C4's in gold.....not my color of choice ...but to each his own. Like the silver.... never really did much for me...never showed the gleam in the paint after a hard day of detailing. I had a T Bird in silver years ago....always looked dirt & dull... so to me any car in silver is dull. Except the 25th anniversary '78 edition black over silver...that was a nice combo.

The owner of that vette is part of the Cypress Garden
Corvette Club in Winter Haven. I met him a long time
ago, he is the original owner. 139,000 miles but in
awsome shape asking 10,900.

That was the "Pace Car" version. Pretty rare as well.

Yes that is a beautiful color for a Corvette. Here is a few pics I took of "Usa1-Zr1" car at Funfest last year.

Wow! Small world - If I recall, you were travelling along with a ZR1 when my wife and I passed you guys on the way to Effingham.

I think it was just before Indy, where the rain was coming down so hard, it was tough to see - I am sure the ZR1 had some fun w/ those 315's

Anyways, we were in the silver Z06

Last year I went to Bowling Green for the C4/ZR1 Gathering and got poured on a couple of times, but just missed the hail storm. Then I had to drive home in the rain.

I haven't gotten rained on for Funfest. But I'm only 2 hours away.

I was hoping that the top pic was the more accurate of the two. I like it. I too have never seen one in the flesh or even in a pic until now. It's just a bit lighter than, and reminds me of, a color that was very popular on '58 Chevys. Our family had one when I was a squirt. I always loved that color.
