Default How many anniversary red 50th c5 verts were made?

I have a 2003 50th. anniversary convertible 6sp and am about to enter it in our local auto show. I want to print up an info sheet on the car and would like to find out how many were produced in this configuration.
I contacted the Corvette Museum and they told me 7547 were made but were not able to tell me how many 6 spd's. Does anyone know if there is a source for this type of data.
Thanks in advance.

There were 26834 2003 Corvette coupes and convertibles produced in 2003 of which there were 8590 6 speeds. I could not find out anywhere what the number of Anniversary Convertible 6 speeds alone where. This being said only 32% of the cars built were 6 speeds.

If one were to assume that there was an equal distribution through coupes and convertibles then there would be 2415 6 speed 50th AE Convertibles. Best I can do.

Your exact answer is here: http://www.50thregistry.com/database/summary.html

Scroll down and enter in your vin #, or your equiped options and you will find out exactly how many AE's were built just like yours.

For me there were 74 coupes configured the same way as mine and mine was the 9th one built of the 74!!

Be sure to join the registry too, it will be the best $10.00 you ever spend! Full of information on the members' forums!!

Well my dad owns a mint 50th full black 6 speed (less than a fifth were made in black most of them were red wine ish colored with a beige top) and an insurance evaluator and corvette collector mentioned it being the only one in eastern Canada except one in New Brunswick.

DertiDan, only 1 guy, besides you, is still active on the forum. Don't expect any responses, as some haven't been active in 12 years.........
