2024 C5of the Year Finalist - Unmodified
Default Production Numbers

Hi all, Is there somewhere to find out how "RARE" my car is... like my 2001, there were 2555 in Navy blue; of which 1234 are convertibles; of which 958 have Lt oak interior; of which 425 have the1SB option; and so on and so on until you get to a final number that is, my car is 1 of 156 made that has all these options (numbers for reference).

Saw this once in a Mustang forum, but cant find one for a C5.

Just curious...

Thanks!

Here you go. Not quite as specific as you are looking for, but some info. You would probably have to call the NCM archives to drill down any further, but unless you have an Aztec Gold or 2001 Speedway White Z06 with Mod Red interior, your C5 will not be very rare. At least that it would effect the value.

GM did not keep stats on all the possible option combinations for the C5 - so finding out just how many cars were produced just like yours is really not available. Besides, not a good chance that the C5 is going to be a rare car.

Thanks for the reply's. I wasn't asking because I want to know its value, just curious about how many that are similar to mine were made. These cars, in my opinion, aren.t worth collecting. They should be driven.

Not sure exactly what you are looking for, but if you take the total number of C5s produced in 2001 35,637 and divide that into the number with your options 156, I come up with .0044% rounded out. Corvette Action Center also has a breakdown of options by %. Here you go

Back in the C1 and C2 years, GM was known to have issued several COPO cars. The standrd joke at early parts swap meets is the saying "This is the only copy sold to the public and the other 6 similar parts are fakes". Unless you could authenticate Zora owned the car, was an ultra rare style car, etc., these is very little market value. The only one that I have seen so far is one of the Skunk Werkes 01Z Convertibles selling at auction for $41K when everything else was selling for $24K or less.

If you really want to know how rare you car is consider this. No other car in the WHOLE world with your options can be said to be owned by (insert name here).
