Purple convertible
I don't often visit e-bay anymore but I stumbled across this 98 for a $9900.00 buy it now and thought someone here might be intrigued.

It's a rare color too - Medium Purple Pearl Metallic and only 381 made that year.

Only a 1998 color, and very rare.
The color chip in the dealers manuals made it appear to be a terrible looking color.
I thought so too when I was looking thru the Dealers manual in 1998.
Then when I saw one in person I thought it was a GREAT color !
Too bad it was not put out there more. I'll bet it could have been more popular.

My dad was the same way, when the new challenger came out he planned to buy a purple 6 speed RT, but when his father (who only owned red dodges for the greater part of 5 decades) passed away last year my dad decided to get a red challenger instead.
The car that got me into cars was a purple cougar.
