Nassau Blue was only on C5's from 1997 - 2000. I think thats LeMans Blue... but I could be mistaken. No matter, great car and great color!

Yes, it's LeMans Blue which I think was only available on the 04 C/E cars. I had my heart set on spiral gray or anniversary red but this grew on my pretty fast. Thanks for all the thumbs up folks! It's great to be a part of the Forum.

Congrats on your new purchase! I have a twin to yours. I love it! Did yours come with the painted top also? Mine came with a painted top, then I hunted down a really nice clear top. Yes the color is Lemans Blue, they still use that color on the new C6's. My story is a little different. I took my mother in law to a Ford dealer to purchase a new Taurus. They had a used 04' CE coupe sitting on the new car showroom, it had seven hundred miles on it. After talking to my wife about it and waiting a few weeks we decided to see if they still had it. Yup it was still there, so.......... we bought it. What a wonderful car. David

Congratulations man! My story is much the same, had a Firebird, had a Z28, but I've wanted a Vette from the day I got my license 30 some years ago. I finally fulfilled my dream a few weeks ago. Enjoy it, I've been falling asleep with a smile on my face every night since I brought it home.
