Default Euro Vette

Have not seen one in person, but looks somewhat unique.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/151721368599?_trksid=p2055359.m1431.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AITWonder what it will sell for? Are the owner's claims on the production numbers accurate?

Definitely don't see many of those here in the States. No clue what it will sell for, but if the reserve is much higher than what the bid is now, it may not sell this time.

Euro Spec also went out to Japan.....They were highly optioned with hud, sport seats, 3.15 rear etc etc as default fitment. I've since added radio flyer halos...so like the advert states the only visual difference is the rear fogs....and mine being red on red aint so bad and the side markers. I think they meant it has a 3ookph speedo....not a 300mph lol, bit ambitious.

New Zealand has quite a few Export Spec C5s....but now more C6's and C7's are coming in so I can't imagine to many more C5s will land here here on in.

As if the early cars don't have enough parts issues. Add to that the fact that there are many unique parts for the exports that are in even smaller supply.
