It is a great color combo. I have 2000 T/R and white an have only seen 2 others the same year. I gets a lot of looks. Mine is a M6 I purchased last year with only 9k on it.

My interior is firethorn red. I have not seen another one just like it . It was a parade car at the Bristal Tenn race in 99. With a white top they are eye catchers!!!!

Well looks like we have four of them know...(we'll include the firethorn red!). By the way, mine is a MN6 as well with a few bolt-ons dyno'd at
408/380. So, not only are they good to look at but they can get down the road as well!

Only the TR, TR and WHITE owners would care but yur right, they're all vettes and they're all pretty special. Firethorn is close but it's it's not TR. Still pretty rare I'll bet.

Torch red with a white top and white seats would be badass

Went to the site no luck VIN # 1G1YY32G325108389, The car was built 9/01, vin figures mids sept, would have been weird built 9/11 huh?, the car has 12k miles on it, when I have the top down, I always have a white cotton towel between the top and the bows, the rubbing together causes dis coloration, your 03 is a real freak, black book states only 308 built, look at 53 production, only 308 built, you have a very rare car my friend, I do not believe that the car is not worth more money, it certinly is, that was as my 1st choice, had to settle for an 02, the 03's are impossibile to find that color combo, I was at the BG show last June, so many people stopped and had their pic by my car, it was a real show stopper, but you either like them or you don't, I love it, Thx

I just put a new Hartz twill Light Oak top on my '00 C5 this spring. The old top was wearing in several spots and the rear window finally came loose so I gave in. Expensive, but well worth it to go with the Hartz twill.
