some people will try to scam anyone.

got this off http://www.web-cars.com/corvette/millionth.php


The color choice for the one millionth Corvette - white with red interior and black roof - was appropriate. This was a nod to the 1953 Corvette, whose entire production run of 300 units featured the same livery.

does anyone know the VIN of #1000000, and what was the VIN of the scam-artist's car? BTW, i still can't access his ad...

Here is the sellers reply to me:

Thanks for looking out for me but according to the certificate i have from gm this is the one millionth vette. the 1000000 came from the factory with a two tone black and white interior white vinvl top which i change to black cloth just my preferrence and white exterior as well as a six speed tranny. I dont really give a **** that you have a triple white 92. you can hate all you want but the proof is in the paperwork.

Maybe there was a second 1,000,000th corvette that we were alll not aware of?
I beleive he has a moon rock available for sale as well.

i would love to see scam-artist's paperwork. i'll bet that its some "on-line make a certificate", or some cut and paste thing. there can be only one 1000000th, and i think we've identified it.

he even said that #1M was the only triple white vert and then got pi$$ed when "92ragtop" challenged him -

Oh man...I thought we were checking our lottery numbers. Ran out to the garage to check my '92 White-Red-Black, but not the right VIN #. Have to try playing again next week.
