I own currently a beautiful 2000 Red / Red / White top convertible that has all the docs with it. Bought it from the original owner that picked it up at the Corvette Museum (Museum Delivery) with all that paperwork. Car has 59k miles but looks like it only has 5k miles...flawless. I love red on red convertible and they only made 2% of production in red/red. They also only made 4% of the convertible production back then with white convertible tops. Yes, they are very scarce and very hard to find out there. I am thinking of selling it because I already placed my order for a 2021 convertible Red/ Red . ......thinking!!!???!!!. Marc/ California

I am nutso about red interiors! My second Z/28 was originally red on gray, but I swapped it over to a complete red interior. My first Corvette was a 69 roadster, red on red with a white top. I currently have a 64 Nova in the shop for a future build, and it is factory red on red. In my experience you never get tired of it!

Jim Ellis invited you to test drive a C8???? I asked a salesman there and they said no test drives, not even a used '21 sitting on their lot. Would love for you to forward that email to me if it's not personalized as I'm thinking of buying a C8 but struggling spending $80-90k on something I can't drive in advance.
