That information is not available. They should have a FAQ explaining this (there has been plenty of posts). But it is IMPOSSIBLE to give a listing of combinations ie Yellow Camaros with ..... or L98s in a ....

GM never kept stats on that. The best you will get is the number of cars of a particular model with ONE specific option...no combinations.

FYI, a GTA is not a model, it is an option on a Trans-AM...so I can get the number of Trans-AMs with the GTA option, the number of Trans-AMs with the L98, but not the number of GTAs with the L98 because they are both options of a Trans-Am.

I cannot say what the "models" for Camaros are, I suspect base and Z-28 (similar to Firbird base and Trans-AM). So you can find how many Camaros of your particular model with yellow and how many had an LG4 but not both together.

Of course, you could guess that if 30% of the Camaros came in yellow and 45% had the LG4 then probably 13-15% had yellow with the LG4. But that would not be exact or necessarily accurate as certain colors were only available with certain models and some engines while available in most models tended to be in certain models more often.

Clear as mud?

Actually Glen, it seems that Pontiac kept separate records for GTA models. Frankie Rider has a breakdown of RPOs and colors for just GTAs on his site.

so would you consider 3915 out of over 192,000 camaros built in 86 rare? thats less than 2%.

Jim, I am not sure if GM of Canada kept track of the same breakdown. I remember asking the question when I had GM of Canada check my RPO codes and I believe they said they could only give me the options on the Trans-AM model, not a breakdown of GTAs as that was only considered an option.

As I remember (I have the stats in storage), GTAs were 700 of the Trans-Ams imported into Canada in 1991 and 450 had the L98s. When I asked if the 450 L98s were GTAs only, they said all Trans-Ams.

But I find it interesting that 700 GTAs were imported into Canada in 1991. No one has been able to confirm if the 700 GTAs are on part of the 2,000 1991 GTAs produced or in addition. I find it hard to believe that 35% of all GTAs made were shipped to Canada. Means Canadians liked the GTAs more than Americans on a per capita basis.

It would be nice to know, because that means there are more GTAs out there than people thought (if these are in addition) or there is even less GTAs available for Americans if they are a part of the total production.
