Re: Anyone else with a Jamaican Yellow Vert?

I own a 1992 Jamaican Yellow Trans Am vert. I have always wondered how many of these were made, as I have not seen another one in person. Where did you come up with the production number of 35?

There was only 26 Jamaca Yellow Formula's & 14 Jamaca Yellow GTA's in 1992 ...

The 35 number for Yellow VErts, I do not know.

The 35 number for Yellow VErts, I do not know.

John
The number came from Pontiac. I called their customer service number and they gave me the break down by color. Not sure if they still do that, but the info came from them in 2004.

Do you have any pics? I would love to see it. Mine came from FL just south of Tampa. I can't remember the name of the town but I'll look on the sticker and post it up. I'm the 5th and last owner of this car (at least for a long time )

I'll take some pictures this weekend and post them early next week. I'm the third owner of it, and didn't even realize that there were only 35 yellow verts made in 92.

I'm glad that you posted this week instead of in a couple of weeks because I was actually trying to decide if I should sell to make more room in my garage, or get the seats reupholstered and keep it for a long time. Knowing how hard it would be to replace, I think you made my decision easy.

Re: Anyone else with a Jamaican Yellow Vert?

Forgot to mention that in the picture, it has aftermarket hood and wheels; however, I still have the original hood and wheels for the car. If you are interested in making an offer, I would definetly consider it as I have a second kid on the way and think I need to get rid of my toy to get my wife a family vehicle.
