My dad had an old SSI Bonneville that color. 1993 I think. When you hear "purple car" you think Barney the gay *** dinosaur purple.

This was the coolest purple ever, just like on the Evo.

When its dark or overcast outside, the color tends to be a very light silver color, with a small purple hue. When its bright, the color really shines through with a rich dark purple. I think it was called "safety purple" or something like that on the Pontiac.

Anyway. I think its sweet.

Thanks for the compliments guys..... yeah the first time I heard "purple" someow Barney came to mind too

Barney

As you noted, the color changes under varying lighting conditions... it's pretty hard to reproduce it.

Here's another shot I just took under the hot noon sun:
