Guldstrand editionC5?
Saw a YouTube video about Dick Guldstrand, and in it, it references a 50 car run of a 560HP 427CI '03 C5 special edition car featuring a gold paint scheme with blue accents. Was this a factory option, or some dealer's offering in conjunction w/DG? Any pics?

The gold color looks great - just not wild about the blue accents.

"The published suggested retail price of the Guldstrand Signature Edition Corvette package is $49,330 (FOB - Detroit). This is in addition to the price of a 2003 Corvette Z06 hardtop"
I think it would be cheaper to put your own 427 in your C5. It costs about the same as the C6Z06 w/ dealer markup.
I'm not wild about the gold and blue either and with only 50 made, I don't think I would drive it much either. Neat car though.

i've seen one of those cars, they look horrible in person, the gold is alright, but the blue accents makes it look like a smurf puked all over the inside.
