Re: how rare is purple haze car?
Well from my research there were only 863 Purple Haze RS's sold with the IROC rockers and ground effects without the Heritage Package Stripes. Only 1,321 Heritage Edition Z28's were made in 92 as the last one was made at the Van Nuys plant before it was shut down. Out of this number only 55 Z28 coupes were made in this color called "Purple Haze".
The convertibles only came with the red and Chrome badge, the RS came with the Yellow RS and Red 25th monicker on the dash panel passenger side.
The Purple Haze/Hawaiian Orchid color was available on 1992 cars. My car has silver and black interior with a 305. This was the common type that people sought after for the RS. It is rare. The Hagerty price quote maxes out at around $16K, but the price is climbing in value.

I drove the purple 1LE heritage Z28 5.7 car. Even had it in my garage for a while. Have a few pictures I need to put up here.

Well I can't be positive, I was just stating that I read in quite a few [what i always believed to be reputable] sources that the purple haze/silver heritage package was only available on RS's. Your the only person i've talked to whose seen a purple heritage Z28. Not saying its impossible, just thought they didnt exist.
