5200 cars (total) painted Troch red

I'm not aware of any more specific break-out than that - - sorry.

Yep,.....similar site with same breakdowns, but not specific enough to isolate all three areas.

http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com/.../2003prod.html

There were 1,374 2003 Torch Red convertibles (RPO7OU). And there were 303 2003 convertibles with red interior (RPO7OI) (but not necessarily on Torch Red vehicles). And there were 218 2003 convertibles with white tops (RPO16T) (but not necessarily on Torch Red vehicles)

So, we would have to take a guess, but I would be willing to say that it isn't very many. Maybe 100 that particular year?

Of course Torch Red convertibles with red interiors and a white top were available for other years too, so that reduces the "uniqueness".

But a great combination nevertheless!
