I guess it depends who you talk to. I see more 6cyl in that color than I do Z-28's. I'll tell you what is a rare color is that greyish color they made in 93 only.

My 95 was that color, So I know they at least made one that color after 94.

I also got more complements and people telling me how they liked that car better then my current black LT1.

Add another 93' Med Patriot to the list. I like dark colored cars and this color is just something diffrent then black. I love it! and on a side note a friend of mine has a 93' that is the rare gray color.

My buddy has a '94 that is a really light purple. The one from '93 is more a silverish/light purple.

Anyone have a good picture of it? I have a 93 Z that's red and is in need of a paint job and I want to keep it red, but I want a good red. I'm pretty sure mine isn't med patriot red in color, then again it's so faded that it's hard to tell regardless

Not to hijack or anything, but everyone was talking about their fav f-bod colors. Here is the color I was talking about. It's a stock '94 color, only came in a few years, I think 93 and 94 or something like that. Oh, this car may be at the shootout too.
