42 purple '98 TA ragtops were built.

Would LOVE to see pics of that white interior, that's gotta multiply the rarity factor. Only 137 of the total 1413 TA 'verts total had white leather.

Data showing a breakdown to option/color combos doesn't exist, or it's been hiding extremely well the last 11 years I've been collecting data. Short of taking all of the purple ragtop VINs and running them all through GM-VIS to get interior option codes for every purple 'vert, I don't think that level of detail data will ever surface.

Hmm. It seems like there are a few purple TA's haunting Texas....I should keep my eyes peeled. I'd like to get one in about 2 years and make some minor interior mods to it I'd chime in about purple's awesomness, but Im a chick-I guess my opinion doens't count on that topic
