There actually used to be a very detailed data base on production numbers for all ’96 Corvettes. It was a link on Wright State University web site at http://www.wright.edu/~mathews.5/
Broken down were exterior/interior color combos, + LT1/LT4 Engines.
FE1, F45, Z51 Suspensions etc.
I do have the complete data for the Artic White, Lets get together to add all what we get in our files from that site... May be some other forum members will have the ones for their color. Lets go guys, add what you got!

Good News! Not only do I have Polo Green numbers, but I came across a hardcopy runout of the 1996 RPO codes and production numbers that I did not think I had from the Wright State University/Collector Edition Registry site. When I looked for my Polo Green info, I discovered the runout for ’96 RPOs and quantities produced. I will compile the list, it will take time as there is 10 pages of data to go through. For now, here is the Polo Green info I have.

One of my best friends has one of these 50...I could've bought it, but went with my Torch Red/Black interior LT4. Didn't realize it was that rare...
maybe you can help me I have 1996 black on black coupe with Z51 suspension package I can't find production numbers anywhere for this car last five numbers 20054 this is pretty late in production wondering if they slap together some with end of inventory ?

Visit CompNINE and do a 'pay for' solicitation. Best I recall they may have added a 'rarity' feature for some years. I don't use them but years ago I did. Your VIN certainly does have data available.
Post back what you learn. This I believe should be your car: 1G1YY22P5T5120054
Hello,
My first post! New to the forum. I have been looking for a later year C4 for some time. I recently located a low mileage 96 LT4 torch red coupe with red interior. After driving this home from Detroit I came to realize this car was a Canadian export based on the metric gauges and Canadian labels under the hood. Any way to determine out of those 348 cars exported to Canada how many were LT4 and red/red coupes? Any help appreciated!
Thanks

Per the Corvette Black Book there were 348 C4s sold into Canada in 1996. Alas it does not say how many of those were LT4s
348 to Canada
11 to Mexico
178 exported overseas.

Hey folks, I took a trip over to Mr Peabody and Sherman's house and took a trip in the Wayback machine. Ha Ha, there actually is a Wayback machine, it is the Internet Archive. So here you go, go get your data.
Let me know if there are issues with the link. I have closed the "tab" and re-accessed it multiple times, but of course there is info in my browser cache.
Go to left side of page, click on "Production #'s" which will open it up to the different colors.
