1991-1992 color question

I just passed a RS and am confused on the color. It almost loomed gunmetal grey. Did they make a grey in these years I thought they didn't. It looked like a car I've seen on the boards here but I couldn't tell the color. It's kinda a blue green mix looks grey. Maybe it looked more grey cause it's cloudy. I have never seen this color though. Looked very cool. Most be a low production color.

Re: 1991-1992 color question

It is a neat color. I have seen two in person.

Actually, I think the FBI ordered 12 of these in 1992 in the B4C package if I remember correctly.

Re: 1991-1992 color question

I own one. It's a 92 RS with a 3.1L V6 in it. It's a Green Grey color that was Only used in 92 and is unique to that year.

I brought the car a year ago up in New Hampshire, it needed the drivers side floor repaired, but I have not been able to obtain a title for it due to some Massachusetts state laws that are preventing me from Ever getting a title for it. ( in New Hampshire you dont need a title for any car that is over 15 years old, so I didn't get a title for it. Well, in Massachusetts, if you don't have a title for the car, you can't register the car, Period ). A pity too as it's really a nice a car. So, I have a nice parts car, ( Complete minus a radio, and a passenger side inside door handle/armrest ), or an expensive Paper Weight. lol

Interesting that you say that the FBI ordered some of them. I was told that mine used to belong to a New Hampshire State Trooper. Coincidence?

here's some pics of my car.

Re: 1991-1992 color question

For trivia buffs, the Dark Green-Gray Metallic color was the 3rd color choice used on 1995-96 Impala SS's. It is the the rarest color for SS's.

If you really wanted a title you could use a title service. They're easy to find on Google and by all accounts they will get you a legal title. There is a little expense involved but the car is probably worth more whole with a clear title then it is as parts.
