Taken right from the standard catalog of firebird as well as the 25th anniversary brochure. The yellow car has a description under it saying the spoiler is a part of the GT package. The 25th brochure lists it as the trans Am GT rear spoiler. It was not available on base Trans Am coupes in 94. In 95 the GT was dropped and the uplevel spoiler became a $400 option RPO T43. It was optional in 95-96 and became standard in 97. You won't find that RPO on any 93-94 cars because the spoiler was part of the Y83 package and all 93's have it. So yes, the spoiler IS part of the GT package. Note in the 3rd pic, all the 94 firebird coupe models are listed. The red regular trans am coupe in the foreground has the low spoiler while the white GT on the right has the uplevel.
The last pic is the book I took the photos of the yellow car and the group of cars from

94 trans am
I have a 94 transam T top that is in the Purple Gray Metallic (PGM). I was going over the RPO codes. One of the options on my car is not on the Code sticker. I have the Hise rise spoiler on it. I know this was not added aftermarket. The car only has 108,000 miles on it. Looking into my car I know there was only 120 made in that color. Not sure how many of those were t-tops. Anyone else find options on your car not on sheet?

Rarity question
My particular Sunfire Yellow '94 TA GT looks exactly like the photo posted from 1995blacktattop on 6/15/22.
My question is more generically related to all the RPO Codes and options available to the various folks involved here.
I have seen some of the charts with production numbers listed and I have to presume these are pretty accurate...but when looking at an individual vehicle I am not sure the best way to correlate the specifics of a single car as to how rare it might be with the myriad of options it was born with?
Like, when you see an old Corvette or something go across the auction block and they claim 'this was one of three produced in this combination'.
So how does a person like me (or any of you for that matter) weed thru anything to discover if our particular combination of colors and options is a super rare item or not?
As example for Havok7734 who has a 1 of 120 in Purple Gray Metallic how could he discover if his car is actually 1 of 15 based upon the options his particular vehicle has?

Honestly I am finding that alot of web searching is the only true way. There are sites you can enter your vin to get I formation. Like the one I attached this website.
http://www.transamworld.com/break-down.htm
so far has been the best resource. I do have some requests with GMC that i am working on. To be able to get a spreadsheet together to break down information.

If I am not mistaken that is true for all the 1994 Y83 Trans Am's as the Y83 designates the GT model which automatically came with the high rise spoiler. The Y82 base Trans Am could be ordered with a high rise spoiler...which would undoubtedly then have the T43 SPID called out. (Unless I am misinformed).
