Red Corvettes are ubiquitous. I know because I've owned six of them (1955, 1963 Split Window, 1971 LT-1 conv., 1974 L-82, 1978 L-82 and 1980 L-82)!

But I finally got smart.

White

I've owned 9 Vettes, and 3 have been White. Currently have a 1998 Convertible Artic White. White on a vette is like having a clean canvas to do what ever you want.

I am back into white- I had a Speedway White Z06 with Mod Red interior for a short period of time (don't ask

) now I have an Artic White 97 Coupe with Firethorn red interior 6 speed- I love it

If anyone has a Artic White Top (I saw one get bought during this thread) let me know...I am looking for one along with a front filler plate...

Thanks!

It doesn't matter if you own an Arctic White, Speedway White, Snowcrest White or Polo White. Although the First C5 was red, the First Corvette was WHITE! Not all Corvettes are RED.

1997: 1,341 of 9,752
1998: 3,346 of 31,084
1999: 2,756 of 33,270
2000: 1,979 of 33,682
2001: 2,465 of 35,627
2002: 1,763 of 35,767
2003: 679 of 35,469
2004: 1,741 of 34,064

I thought my Harley was rare until I saw how few White C5's were made. We really do belong to a very special family!
Thanks to all who submitted.

I am already on the list but here are the details:

Speedway White 2001 Coupe comes home tomorrow. Speedway White with Silver Flames & black interior.

I couldn't believe that SPDWY WT was still available as a plate in Cali.

Congratulations, Mark. I've had my car for 5 1/2 years now and I still love the Arctic White on Torch Red color combo as much as the day I bought the car new. Plus, as a friend of mine said recently, "when a white car is clean, it REALLY looks clean!" How true, how true.
