It has to be a 4x4 otherwise you can’t drive it anywhere. Can’t get up my curb with a lowered C5.

Those wheels came out on the 2000 model year. So, unless they were added to an earlier model, it’s at least a 2000 coupe.

If you look closely, that is a special-order model with a unique paint code. The body color matches the tire color, black/black., unless the body color is aftermarket! LOL
