1998 only, Sport Gold Metallic or SGM for short, ...
Same thing on the Firebirds.

Yes, there probably is some colors not made, again similar to the Firebird, as some colors not made in the WS6 & Firehawks.

Using the search function I found this info;

You want rare 98-Gold, here you go......
1LE= 1-auto, 2-6-speed
B4C= 6-auto, 0-6-speed.
SS= 29-coupes, 7-verts.

There are a few colors they didn't make SSes in.

'96'-97 you could only get an SS in bright red, arctic white, black, sebring silver, polo green, and bright teal. You couldn't get one in any other color. Somebody was selling a '96 dark purple metallic SS on ebay a few years ago, and the pictures looked fairly legitimate, but the owner wouldn't show me any documentation proving it was a real SS. I didn't save the VIN # to check with SLP either.

Off the top of my head, the only colors you couldn't get on an SS from '98-'02 were... bright blue, bright purple, mystic teal, bright green. I don't believe you could get a monterey maroon SS either...

Gold SSes were indeed very rare. There's only 1 SS in mystic teal, and it was a test car for the SS program. It didn't get crushed, somebody owns it, but I can't remember who (off the top of my head again). It was a convertible.

thanks for the info! if it was a test car don't they not have a vin number? So it is not a street legal car correct?

It had a VIN and was licensed, IIRC.

SGM SS's are some rare finds. There's one or two on here, IIRC.

thats pretty cool that it is a streetable car.

I have never seen a SGM SS. I have seen a few v6's but nothing else in this color or even pics of a gold SS.
