Almost never see this color combo
Almost never see this color combo on the forum, says only 453 were made....seen a few Nassau Blues but usually FRC's...Thought I would share, it looks to be a Cherry.
This is local car to me but I have never seen it...

NB's Rawk..
That one is in beautiful shape but over priced.
15-16k tops IMO.

Same color combo as mine, and I love it. Good looking car there in the ad for sure.

Only overpriced if you're the buyer!
Can't blame the seller for trying to get all he can. I don't think many around here are just going to give away their cars...
Like the combo though!

I have a '99 Nassau Blue targa with a six speed. I love Nassau Blue.
Before I had really wanted a Nassau Blue FRC and had trouble finding one I liked. When I got this car and eventually started researching it I found out that for '99 and '00 the six speed targa Nassau Blue cars are actually rarer than the same year FRC Nassau Blue cars. Since all FRCs are manual and only a small percentage of targa coupes got the six speed throughout C5 production, Nassau Blue targas with six speeds have lower production numbers. Mine in particular is something like 182 of 577 Nassau Blue targas with a six speed as opposed to 202 Nassau Blue FRCs all with six speeds. I'd imagine for something like a '97 NB car with a manual that'd be a rare dog.
