Default Navy Blue Ext/Torch Red Int

Have '01 with Navy Blue ext with Torch Red int. Original owner told me only 5 were made with that ext/int color combo. Have yet to see another in my travels. Anyone else have one or seen one and where?
Thanks.

Hi Norm,
I saw one about 1 year ago on e-bay motors.I think it was a 2001. Was really sharp looking (20k on the clock) except for the $40,000 price tag.

I maybe mistaken but I think they call that the Patriot Car and yes I read that there are only 5. Rich, formerly of Car Motorsports in Peachtree City GA has one. I was over there a couple of weeks ago and saw it first hand. His was a vert with a white top. Beautiful!! Congrats on a great find!
