Thanks, That's funny... When I was looking for a FRC I wanted Pewter but couldn't find one, so I got my white FRC. I has a 93 white black interior and really didn't want another white car. The price was right so I went for it. Now I get a lot of complements and guys tell me they don't see many Artic white FRC's around.

I like my Papaya Orange. GM should have made this color!

I didn't know there were so many FRC's here, I'm also a member of that somewhat rare club with my 2000. It's great to see some of the other guys proudly displaying their rides.

Nice pics!

I've always thought about installing some Z06 scoops on my new FRC but after seeing these pics, I'm starting to have second thoughts.
