Was z-28 ever made in yellow from 93-on? If so, what years?
Thanks!

not that i know of...ive seen yellow 93+ but only v6's...and even those might be custom...im not sure...

yellow is a color that is cool (in my book-cuz it was my fav color growing up) but however it would be senseless cause not enough people would order them...waste of an option ya know?

I'm pretty sure that all yellow camaro's have been repainted like Brent's SS. But the Firebird did come in yellow in 2002 and it looks SWEET!

Thanks! I found a real sweet looking z28 that is yellow, but I did not think they ever came yellow. I personally love love the color, reminds me of the 60's corvette yellows, but I won't buy a car that has had a color chenge.

I want to agree that in '93 yellow was available for both Z's and birds. However, I think it was pulled very early due to quality, cure and bonding issues....I could be wrong.

I know they made some very early (93?) Firebird Trans Ams and have again recently (2002?) but wasn't aware of any factory yellow Camaros. If they do exist, they must be even rarer than the yellow 93 Firebirds.

Hey Brent,
As I was drooling over the extremely LARGE pics of your car, I saw what looked to be a flaw in your paint. By all means I'm not putting your car down, but I just had to ask if what I'm seeing is really there or not. Its on one of the 3/4 shots of the front drivers side. Right in front of the front left tire, in the seam between the fender and the bumper cover. It looked like a large bubble with smears around it (for lack of better explanation). Is that really there or is it just me. If so, why didn't the body shop you had paint the car fix that. Like I said, I'm not trying to put your car down, but with such LARGE pics, it makes things easier to see. Otherwise its one of the baddest SS's I've seen.
Andrew

I just checked the other pics, and believe it or not, it isn't there. Sorry to be so quick to judge. Anyway the pic that its in is the bottom row of 4, the 2nd one from the left. Thats the only pic I saw it in. Maybe its just water bubble or something.
Anyway, it still looks great!

Well, I did a little research and here it is...

According to the f-body.org technical database at: http://www.f-body.org/tech/

In 1993 exterior colors available: Arctic White, Bright Red, Black, Bright Teal, Polo Green, Dark Gray-Green Metallic, Purple Pearl Metallic, Medium Patriot Red, Medium Quasar Blue, Yellow (Only 196 made, Pontiac only).

In 1994, Yellow (Only 304 made, Pontiac only) dropped at midyear.

So no factory yellow Camaros- only Firebirds, Formulas and TAs...
