Not all white at all...
Mine is black with orange.

Awesome

My understanding is that they sold for a little as $80K and are now getting offers for over $300k.
Congratulations to owning such a beautiful car!

Hey Eric

Just a little!

The TBSS is only .7 slower then the COPO.

Both are going faster next year! Still love my hood I got from you too.

Lucky to have one at my dealership.

I consider myself a "lucky one". I have seen 5 different Copo's in person, and 3 of them on the track running.

Looks like orange peel.
Let me know when you are in Phoenix, we having a real cool car show this weekend which will include that car.

The poor paint quality could also be due to the lack of a factory warranty.
"Body in white" Copo cars got a quick squirt in the paint booth to save money where the real money goes, engine and drivetrain.
Orange peel can also be smoothed with 1000 grit sanding and a buffer.
