Default Production Numbers?

I was reading the production numbers over at Corvette Action Center for my 1999 coupe. It says there were 919 made. Before I bought the car, I saw a car advertised as one of four in it's configuration (Forget the year, but was Electron Blue with Red interior, auto coupe). Is there any way to further break down those numbers to find how many 6speed coupes or by other options there were?

I've read about exterior numbers . . .and interior numbers . . .but nothing that relates the two . . . but here's a good website on 99 production if that helps at all:

Unfortunately, GM did not keep track of all the option and color combinations that were made.

Ok, thanks. I wonder how those people knew there were only four EB auto coupe with red interior. I'm calling BS maybe?

As the owner of an Electron Blue `02- I can't imagine that you could even order a red interior . .but it might account for why there are so few!

To each their own . . .

There were a handful of Electron Blue C5s made in '02 and '03 with Torch Red interiors. Some were coupes, some were convertibles. My buddy has an '03 convertible in this combination with a white top and stripes - a very striking combo. I think he found out that he has the only 6-speed convertible in those colors for that year.
