[Shotimes] opal frost

[Ron Porter]

Maybe.
 
But, look at the car auctions......not that old SHOs will ever be worth squat in 20 years......but the biggest sellers are usually the most popular colors. The oddball colors are not an advantage.
 
Probably gonna piss off Don again (but I understand that he likes the offbeat colors....especially brown), but the off colors (and the dated colors like the "rare green") will be less valuable than the basic bright red, white, or black.

Having a low miles Opal MTX, how many of the 1302 were MTX? If I take an 
average which for that year seemed to be 18% of sho's were MTX, would that 
mean that my car is 1 of ~~~200?
