Yes they are rare, I have a 93' sunfire yellow ta with t-tops.
they made a total of 60 sunfire yellow ta's in 93' and out of them only 22 had t-tops. I have a 1 of 22 car. so your's a 1 of 60....

I was always curious of 93 LT1 build #'s. I have a 93 gray-green metallic Z28 with the M29 6spd. I was wanting to know how many m29 6spd cars were made in 93 and in my color.

Yellow was never a Camaro color, only 93 and maybe 94 Birds. GM's test mule for the 96-97 was a yellow TA, saw pictures of it at some car show where GM had a couple of its cars out.

Correct.....

There were never any yellow Camaro's available.

Sunfire yellow was only available in 1993 and 1994 for Firebirds, Formulas, and TAs.

Its a rare car....and even more so if it is a 6spd.

All of them were M29s in 93, from my understanding.

Also from my understanding, wasn't there no T-Top cars in 93. Or just no T-Top Formulas?
