Go all the way...find a clean, low mileage Z16 Commemorative Edition. They are LeMans Blue, a little darker than EB but damn fine looking. Not that I am biased!!

You might have a hard time finding an EB 04

You'll have better luck looking for a LMB car

They only had Electron Blue in 2002, and 2003. Mine is an 03, and it is why I got the car, because I love that color.EB Z's are a bit hard to find, but if you look hard enough, you might find it, just be patient. In 04, the color was Lemans Blue, nice, but not EB.
By the way, keep your head down over there, and come back safe and sound.

EB is the best color and that's the only ZO6 I will settle for.. Can't get rid of this cobra fast enough.

Good luck in Kuwait and stay safe bro. Thanks for what you do.
I've got a SPEC 3 in my 600+rwhp Z28 and it's been holding pretty good. That T56 was smooth from day one and works great with the Pro 5.0 shifter.
I have the LeMans Blue and I think it looks different from the Electron Blue...it's more purple-ish.
Good luck in your endeavors and hit me up if you need any info.
