From an artitcle in August 2003's Automotive Design Magazine, GM is going to build around 2000 Commemorative C5 Z06's before the end of the C5 run. Highlights from the article are, Special paint (Leman's Blue), special badging, shale colored interior with specially embroidered headrests, but most of all, that sitting above the 405HP V-8 will be a painted carbon fiber hood. The largest painted production component of it's type being fitted to cars. The photo of the front of the Z06 lookes very nice. The vehicle has a shale colored stripe bordered in red from the front of the hood and over the top (was not able to tell how far back it goes but I assume it continues back over the trunk lid).
C-5 badge on the front looks like it is outlined in white rather then the normal black. Article goes into detail about the discription, manufacture & assembling of the carbon fiber hood.
