Not yet, but they may have to "gay" it up in the near future.

the only pink C5 I've ever seen is Angylene's no idea if it came that way from the factory. if it did it would probably make it the rarest color in existence! it wouldn't surprise me though, plenty of girls like these cars also, it looks just like the Barbie Corvette's

of course notice from that picture its got the GM stickers on it over top of the pink paint...I didn't think it was possible to get those except for straight from the factory. unless someone did a really careful job of masking them off.

I have never heard of a C5 coming from the factory in pink. Thankfully GM has more sense than that.

Paint code OGU. In the article below it is talking about Cadillacs but Im sure its the same paint code for Corvette also. I dont know how many Mary Kay Corvettes there are out there but I know that they could get one. I had a ex gf that was into that stuff and she told me about it. As for Angylene's Corvette, it was repainted pink. She has had a pink C4, C5, and now C6.
