You are in luck, I do have color breakdowns for the '98 WS6s......
Color / Total / TA Coupe / TA Vert / Formula / Form Vert
White / 254 / 185 / 47 / 22 / 0
Silver / 255 / 182 / 37 / 36 / 0
Purple / 12 / 9 / 2 / 1 / 12 / 0
Gold / 65 / 52 / 6 / 7 / 65 / 0
NBM / 30 / 21 / 8 / 1 / 30 / 0
Red / ? / ? / ? / ? / ? / 2 <- One A4 w/ Blk top, one M6 w/ Wht top
Black / ? / ? / ? / ? / ? / 0
Total '98 WS6 Prod. * / 3086 / 2273 / 339 / 221 / 2
* From http://lair.evyl.org/1998-Firebird_P...on_Numbers.htm
I can look up the ASC build# of your '98 WS6 if you PM me your VIN. NOTE my database is missing VINs of the black and red '98 WS6s, which is why I don't have breakdowns for those colors.

Well it was nice to find some numbers for the Maple Red, even if it was the last year numbers, still can't find numbers for the 2000 year, all I know not many of them at all.

Riceburner - I haven't seen BGC in person, but I don't think it has a purple shade to it... if your paint really is blue-purple, sounds like a cool color, but it's probably not the original factory paint
I can't determine your original color from the VIN (although a GM dealership could using their database, it's not actually part of the VIN). I'd need your color code from the RPO sticker on the driver's-side door frame. If you don't know which is the color code, just post everything that it says on the sticker.

I'm trying to understand all of the M6 and 1LE and A4 stuff. What does it all mean?!?!?! and how do I ind out what my car is? Is it the label on the door jam? And how can I figure out what all of the letters and numbers mean? Is there a chart?

1LE = Option Package with less glam and more Go-Go (like no power options, but better suspension)
A4 = Automatic 4 speed
You won't see M6 or A4 on your RPO sheet. It's just net jargon.
There are RPO sheets all over the net.
Here's my fav.

I hate to dig up an old thread, but I was reading through this and remember something that I read a while back somewhere else. You all were talking about that Purple color that is similar to the NBM that is on many other cars. I read that only like 24 rolled off the line with the Purple metallic paint. GM ran into problems with the paint and used a different mixture with ended up being the NBM paint. They discontinued the purple and continued with the nbm. I'll do some more digging and see if I can find that article anywhere and post it here.

12 Purple WS6s were built, 2 TA 'verts, 1 Formula and the rest were TA T-tops.
