I haven't seen one like it but it sounds like something I would love. Congratulations on getting back in to a C5. Sorry I don't know where to find production numbers based on interior color.

I have an EB with red interior coupe. I get a lot of positive comments. Almost all that see it ask if it was a regular production car. As far as I know they were special ordered usually by dealers. When I bought mine, Kerbeck had 2 a coupe and a vert. The coupe was auto and the vert a stick. I have a bad left foot so I took the auto. There are no official numbers on these but over the years in talking to people and reading CF, it seems there are 5 coupes and 6 verts. 5 of the verts had white tops and 1 black. Read the following and it may answer some of your questions. Congrats on buying a really rare car.

I have heard the verts with white tops called the liberty edition because of the red, white and blue color scheme.

I was going to say, sounds like a grand sport configuration.

Navt Blue w/Torch Red. Didn't like it at first, but it has grown on me. EB and Torch Red, wild!

Do post pictures of it. It's been several years since I've seen an Electron Blue with Red Interior. There was a convertible here in Houston, but I never saw it with the top up.
Congratulation on your find!
