Happened with the 98 Firebird and Trans Am. They introduced this Purple Metallic color that for some reason wouldn't stick to the cars very well so they yanked it and replaced it with Navy Blue Metallic (which in the end wassprobably WAY more popular than that Purple would ever be).

I don't know the figures on regular firebirds and Trans Ams, but I do know they only made 6 WS6 Trans Ams in this color, I almost bought one. In the end though... it was still a purple trans am. Guy even had a hard time selling it, it was a good deal.

Rare != Valuable.
