Crown Modis Corvette

Has anyone ever heard of a Crown Modis limited edition Corvette? I was told it was a limited production released by Chevrolet, possibly in 2005 or 2006.

Are there any pictures of this rare beast or does it still only exist in the wild (of the owner's imagination)?

Crown Modis Limited Edition Corvette .... Never heard of it
_______________________________

But, I happen to have a rare 2011 GS limited edition model

It's called the 'Type R' .Limited Edition and GM only made 18 of them in 2011 ... I am sure that you can figure out what the 'R' means

And the phrase "Crown Modis". There are a total of eight hits in all of Google for that. And this thread is one of them and one of the others is an automatically created FaceBook page from search requests.

The other 6 have nothing to do with cars.
