Hi 1slo6 -

Nope - they just started doing that in 2006 - so no c5's have them - and I have not seen them on C6 corvettes, but instead they reside on Cobalt SS Supercharged cars ( I had one) and some other SS machines - here is a pic of the one on my SS Cobalt -





But - in summary - never on C5's and I am not aware of them ever on a C6 either.

best regards -

Hi bullitt4110 -

I did not know that.

I do know that Trailblazer SS's have the badge as well.

I wonder if the GM Performance badges were added at the same time they started putting the small square GM logos on the sides of the vehicles.....

They used to call that the "Mark of Excellence".
