Default How many

I have a 2012 Carlisle blue grand sport convertible, was wanting to know how many of these were produced.
I am in Australia, I am told I have the only one here , all the corvette clubs and the people that do the conversations here agree I’m it .

I've owned my Carlisle Blue Corvette 3 years now and I have not seen another Corvette this color in person. It almost seems impossible in a city the size of Dallas. Here's a few photos I posted previously.

I might have your twin....There were 109 base coups with 2.8 percent getting the machined/painted wheels which it looks like you have...This one is my second Carlisle blue as I bought a new one in 2012 and traded it a few year later..I purchased this one in January of this year..Enjoy yours!

Hi Hawkgfr,

Unfortunately my Corvette has the standard wheels. I much prefer yours!

Hello,

I just saw my second Carlisle Blue Corvette, and incredibly, it was spotted in my hometown of Garland, Texas. Yesterday on my way to run, I saw a very nice Grand Sport Coupe turn onto La Prada Drive. It seems strange two of the 535 Carlisle Blue Corvettes made reside in the Garland, Texas, area.

That color is almost identical to the light blue that was on the 1977 Vettes. It was my second car and got it in '81 as a High School graduation gift and I drove it through college.

The nice thing about it was that at night it looked silver. There were a number of times I heard stories about someone doing something they probably shouldn't have been being described as being in a silver Corvette with Arkansas plates. A lot of these times I was hearing it from a LEO asking if I knew anyone in a silver Vette.

CB is a one year only color, chances are you won’t see a lot of them
