Electric Blue C5?
I am starting my search for a C5, got a C3 but she's just too old for daily driver duties!
I've got some pretty specific requests on the color but I don't know if it even exists!
I want a 2002/2003 C5 6sp with a black interior that is stock and with low milage - less than 20k. The thing is my girlfriend swears that she's seen an electric blue (not midnight blue and not nassau blue - same color as my old Ford Racing Puma; http://www.fordracingpuma.com/mainwebpage.html) colored one around our neighbourhood. Is this a stock color for a corvette?
Can anyone help? I've given myself a few months to find one but am I setting wrong expectations?
Thanks

agreed.. its ELECTRON BLUE.. i don't think its that rare... many people have them.. esp on the forum.. I think bowling green and this purple color i saw are the rarest.. and gold as well.. it was a factory mess up i think?

That would be the 2003 JD Gold Award Coupe, the only production Coupe ever to come out of Bowling with the Z06 rear brake duct...

and the only way you are going to get a factory black interior on a Lemans Blue is to get a Z06 or the European export coupe.
