2005 (First year of C6) production numbers - 37.3K

That's a yearly increase of 131% between C5 and C6. You can also see there was a drop as the expectation for the C6 cut into C5 sales.

In reality what we are seeing in the C7 is following the same pattern as the last major change in the platform. The proof in the design is if it can maintain higher (no one expects first years numbers in year 4-6 of cycle) numbers over the life of the platform, not just first year numbers.

Why would you use total C5 production in 2003 and only coupe numbers in 2004????

I see them absolutely everywhere. I see more C7s than all other Vettes combined on the streets.

Considering your number of 16.1k was completely inaccurate and the real number is 34,064 for 2004 your point is completely invalid.
