There are figures for the various options individually but no figures exist for the combinations.

The NCM has the paper build sheets in file cabinets.

Someone, one day, will OCR them into a database and queries like yours will be possible. Maybe if you made a large donation... :P

There were 7,663 bright red Corvettes built in 1989.

There were 9,749 convertibles.

There were 7,139 red interiors.

There were 22,299 automatic equipped vehicles.

Now as far as the combinations that match yours, I have no idea!
