I just bought an lbr ZO6 with Kalahari interior on Saturday. It is getting a LOT of attention on the road. And a LOT of compliments from my friends.

The difference between sun and shade is like having two paint jobs!

This color throws light like crazy. The difference in day / dusk / night appearance is incredible.

Default LBR GS pics out there yet??

I'm dying here, has anyone seen any pics out there of a '17 LBR Grand Sport?

Mine rolled off the line 7/18, but since I'm stationed in Hawaii it will be a good two months before I get to see it. I know, "you're in Hawaii so shut up lol, but I haven't seen a single LBR GS photo yet and I'm sure someone has had a museum delivery by now.

Default A Rare Combination

Now that the 2016 production statistics are out, I wanted to share our LBR convertible.

I am sure it is not "1 of 1" but there are not a lot like it out there.

Z51, 3LT, 7M, LBR, grey top, two tone grey interior, chrome wheels.




Only 594 LBR Stingray convertibles.





Only 191 Stingrays with grey tops. I wonder how many made it onto LBR?





Only 210 Stingrays with two tone interior.





And the color change with different light make LBR difficult to describe.



Many thanks to Glen e for the support in making our FOXVETTE look great. His methods are super fast and easy and the results are great! (And he is a very patient teacher!)

Side skirts are RPI Stage 1 and the splitter is the Z06 one painted in Carbon Flash.

LBR=2016 first year color.
Brownstone=Last year interior

1 of 53 so how rare is this?

We all think our cars are special.

I have essentially the same car but I went with black top and the carbon stinger and Z51 wheel inserts. I sure do love the two tone gray interior. Both cars show very good taste.
