It was a color combo that, for most of the year wasn't available and it was never published that you could order that combo. I was just playing around with orders and the system let me order that combo one day so I let it ride.

When the car came in, it was not attractive at all and our GM did not approve of my decision. The car sold within 2 days of hitting the lot and my ordering was never questioned again after that. lol


That car had to have been a one of less than 5 ever made. It was a 6 speed too. I still have a copy of the invoice somewhere.
You sir, are a winner. It's posts like this that keep me coming back here. You actually made history, that is bad ass.
