Default my 99 vert

i have not seen a pewter vert with a white top. I have looked at all the threads with pics and have not seen it. Does anyone know how many of these were made in 99? I love the look of mine and like that it may be a little differant.

Second part of this thread is how do you post a pic????? I would love to show off my car but i cant figure that out.

help

Sign up for photobucket.com and you can download pics from your computer to that site (it's a hosting site for images). Then underneath your picture, you'll see three different things you can chose, URL link, HTML or IMG, copy and paste the IMG code into a message and poof!

IN 99, only 6% of all domestic verts had a white top. There were more on blue & red cars than anything else. What that means....I have no Idea but I saw it on a statistic sheet somewhere.

NIce car it probably is unique # wise and I have not seen another. As far as the lambo's go your call (your $$$) ,but go to the C5 parts section and look around for other upgrades for the same money, you will be surprised what you could line up.

That's the first pewter vert with a white top that I recall seeing. Interesting combination.

As far as the lambo doors - not for me.

Great looking Vert and congratulations on posting the pic

Lambo doors are not for me but there are a few amazing examples on the Forum here.

That is the first pewter ith a white top I have seen. I have a white/white/firethorn 98 and most of the cars I have seen on here were white tops have been blue or red. I have only seen 1 with my combo and I saw a purple pearl metallic 98 with a white top at vettes on the rockies last year. For sure a rare combo like yours
