98 Production Numbers

Does anyone know how many Red GTS's with silver stripes were made in 1998? Thanks

All were real late build cars due to the issues with the stripe paint.

There was something like 11 of them. I know that 2 were wrecked and put back together with clean titles.... let me know the VIN and I'll see if it's the one I wrecked.

Thanks... I am waiting for the guy to give me the VIN #, but I will let you know as soon as I hear from him. The car is in Autotrader...a 98 Red GTS with silver stripes w/ 40K miles. $38,500 firm. I'm thinking that's a good deal if it has a clear title. The guy said he drove it today for the first time in a while and it did great. HE doesn't drive it much b/c he lives in NEw JErsey and just got married. Good deal you think? Again, VIN # is to come

Check out the paint carefully for bubbles. My '98 was perfectly fine for 7 years, then suddenly began to get the dreaded paint bubble issue in a few spots. Getting the car repainted is not cheap. Red GTS's from '97 and '98 had some real issues with this problem.

Thanks for the info. I am also looking into a 98 GTS in Texas...Silver w/ 30K miles. It's at a dealer, they are wanting $41,000?? Good deal?? I'm hoping they will go down to at least $40,000 or $39,500. They are asking $41,995. What do you guys think?
