I've got the book. It doesn't go into that much detail. The closest you would get would be how many white cars made. It may tell you the price of the two top option, but I don't think it would say how many were ordered that way, and even then, you wouldn't have the breakdown by color. I don't have the book in front of me at the moment but I'm pretty sure I'm right on this. Anyone care to add to that, or correct me?

If those black leather sport seats are original that car is one of 28 or less - sport seats were generally limited to coupes with the Z51 suspension, but exceptions were made ...

I checked a couple of years ago with the NCM. They have all (or almost all) of the C4 build sheets, courtesy of GM, but it would take a lot of data entry into a computer before they could tell you how many of what color with which options were built. Until there are economical, very accurate optical character readers available, there's no profit potential in mining the data so it won't happen for a while. There were 358,180 C4s built.
