Check out my new ride I got today....

50th Anniversary Millenium Yellow '03 Z06, man I love it!! :smash: :smash: Got a good? deal on it, they gave me $40K for my '02, and they knocked off a couple g's from the invoice. Things must be slow in the car sales business, right after Christmas. I guess if you're at the right dealer at the right time, you can get a decent deal. The best thing about it, is it doesn't show dirt like the black Z did.

This car was made by GM for itself to show in the D.C. area "World of Wheels" car show, last month. They had a total of 4 new Corvettes in the show, then afterwards sold them to local dealers and the my dealer bought this one. They just got it in 2 days ago. It has 150 miles on it and was only driven to the show and back by a GM employee, so I'm told.

On the window sticker, normally the dealer that orders the car from GM is given. In this case, the name of the "Dealer" on the sticker is..... Northeast Region, 100 Renaissance Center, Detroit, Michigan. Dealer #31045

What is the teminology given these types of cars that GM builds for itself? My scanner is down, but I will post the sticker shortly. :cheers:

Wow ! You are a madman. That is really cool, having a car that GM did not sell to a dealer - and ya' know it had to be perfect !

Congrats ! And lets not see a post in a few weeks about trading for a EB :D

Thanks '67, how in the hell did you get that info? Never mind, I got some phone calls to make on Monday, thanks again. :thumbs:

Grey Ghost · 01-10-2003, 10:40 PM

If I were you. I would try and get a program from the show it was in and any of the publicity stuff - pictures, advertisements for the show, etc...Build you a nice folder of info on it.

Patrick, Now that you have two yellow Corvettes, you should contact one of the Corvette magazines to see if they would do an article on them. Congratulations on the new purchase. I like the yellow. I had one black car in my life and would never buy another one. Nice when clean but too hard to keep looking good.
