Rarest combo
What is the rarest C5 combo?
I have a 71' coupe, white, 350..... commen as dirt.
My 02' is a yellow vert with a 6 speed. doesn't seem to be as many of these.
With the 71' I have a book to look such things up.
I'm sure there is such a book for the c5s as well, just haven't seen one.
Any thoughts?
Later,
Jw

rarest colors that come to mind are the fairway and bowling greens offered early on and the purple
the fixed roof coupes(hardtops)built in 99 and 2k are rare when looking for arctic white or nassua blue

He's asking about combos, not just exterior color. The # of combos has been hard to find. Total # of a certain color is available and # of a certain interior is available, but not a combo. Frankly, I have a Quicksilver coupe with torch red interior. I've been to many shows, including Carlisle, and have yet to see another like it.

Thanks Glennm27, as that link was exacly what I was looking for.
Guess I should have said "Prodution" cars, ......I know what your thinking, they are all production cars, but I was looking for the average car out there, not a limited edition.
Thanks for all the other replys as they were interesting, specially liked the purple vette, didn't know they made one. What was story on GM making one for an employee? Never heard of the General doing that. Maybe a exec taking home a prototype, or having one customized, any one know the story?
