As I understand it, all of the production 2+2s were silver. Well, all but one. The King, Richard Petty, loves his street cars black. When Petty Enterprises ran the 2+2 in the 86-87, Pontiac gave him a black version. I took a picture of it during a recent trip to Petty's Garage - Richard's restoration/custom business now operating in the old PE shops. Doug Murph, former PE car chief and current PG employee who showed me around, told me this one doesn't have a VIN so it will never be titled. I thought it was a pretty neat trivia item.
