White 2003 Z06?
Hi folks - I'm new to the forum and in the market for my first Vette, a C5 Z06 in particular. I've found a low mile 2003 Z06 in white. 
AFAIK from research and my C5 buddies, white was not an option in 2003 for Z06. I ran the VIN and it checks out as a Z06. I have not seen the car in person yet. Was white a custom order option? Is there something specific I should inspect and/or ask about the color? Carfax and Autocheck show clean records. Can someone perhaps pull a build sheet for it?
Thanks for your help.
Cheers!

speedway white z06 was only available in 2001. There were only 352 built in that color. If it's a 2003 Z06, and its white, it's not from the factory and it was painted after being purchased.
Good luck with your search

It is local and I plan to test drive it soon, but I'm doing homework first.

NADA shows $26k is clean retail. They're asking $29k. I could get a C6 at that price. 
It's been sitting on their lot since April this year. I'm thinking $24-26k out the door would be fair. Assuming it checks out...
Original color is silver.

Silver is the lowest color of all C5Z's......
