2002 C5 Coupe
Default Bowling Green C5....what year did they make it?

I am falling in love with this color on the c5....the bowling green dark hunter green....its really pretty....but what Iam wondering is....what years did they make the c5 in this rare color.....I have seen 99's and 2000's... did they do it in 97 or 98?

Also....were any of the cars' interior done in just black or charcoal or did they all come in the tan?


thanks
jeff
yup...Iam still looking for a nice c5

Dark Bowling Green Metallic was available only in 2000 & 2001. I believe you could get black, gray or light oak for the interior.

Ours is light oak.

The other green color on the C-5's is called Fairway green. I believe it was available from 1997 to 2000.

Fairway Green was '97-'98 only. No greens in '99.

DBGM could be ordered with any color interior. Torch Red was not "recommended," but I have seen one.... I bet the dealer wanted a hefty non-refundable deposit for that one!

I can understand that. I think a red interior would be too Christmas like for my tastes.
Fairway green is a unique shade in its own right...
