When Bowling Green releases the numbers it should be found at this URL, if they stick with their naming standards.

2021 C6 of the Year Finalist - Modified

Production numbers for all C6 models:

2005: 37,372

2006: 34,021

2007: 40,561

2008: 35,310


2009: 16,956


2010: 12,194

2011: 13,596

2012: 11,647

2013: 13,466
___________________________

Notice how that in the last 4 years of the C6 (2010-2013), the average yearly production has been only about 12,000-13,000 units yearly.

And triple that amount in the first 4 years of production (2005-2008) ... Interesting!

(The turning point was in the year 2009 when the housing market collapsed)

First five years the economy was doing well. Next 3-4 years in the tank with some recovery taking place late. Even with the recovery in 2012 & now it is not top the point were many people are willing to drop $45K-$80K on a specialty car. Also a lot held off waiting for the C7. Final thought, is the 2013 numbers were helped with the available 427 roadster.

It looks like Inferno Orange is actually the rarest color for 2012:

GLF Carlisle Blue - 535 total
28U Inferno Orange - 471 total
