Congradulations!!!!

Mines a 2000 CC Intense Blue R/T. The Amber "Fire" has got to be the "coolest" color. No pun intended.

is there any stats out as to which is the rarest color?? Amber Fire, Solar Yellow are my guesses due to their limited runs

are there figures out there concerning the number of each color?? I would say Solar Yellow or Amber Fire would have to be the rarest due to their limited runs

The stats are on these forums somewhere I believe. As for Solar yellow being the rarest, in my area, I have seen 2 Intense Blue (1 CC and 1 RC) 1 RC Amber Fire, 1 CC White, 5 Flame Red (2 CC and 3 RC), 2 CC Silver, 4 Solar Yellow (3 CC and 1 RC) and alot of Black R/T's (one RC owned by my friend's father). I'd definately say Amber Fire is the rarest, and I believe it only had a 1 year run, as opposed to the Solar Yellows 2 year run.

I own a 99 Deep Amythest Pearl. I have never seen another Dak in this color, only a few Durangos.

I think the Amythest is the rarest. It's either the Amythest or the Amber Fire. I've seen 2 Ambers in person. I've only seen one Amythest. I can't count the number of Fire Red's I've seen. I've seen several White R/T's.

Well just got back and the R/T was in stock mint condition so I took her home. Got it at Sam Swope
GMC in louisville, KY.

2000 Amber Fire CC r/t every option including the power seats and steering will radio controls. Runs like a dream. Worlds apart from my old v6.

Forgot the Amythest, it was actually between a Amythest RC and a Solar Yellow CC when I got mine, but I couldn't see myself in a purple truck (like yellow is much better) and I wanted the back seat of a club cab.

Believe it or not I get a lot of positive compliments about the deep amythest pearl. It looks almost bluish during the day and a deep purple at night. At first I thought, oh man purple, but it is actually a nice color.

I forgot to mention that I didn't realize it was that rare. I just thought I didn't notice them.

My boss had a deep amythest pearl on his Durango, it was the only one I ever saw.

2 of my friends have Amber fire Dakota Quad Cabs, sweet color. These are the only 2 I have seen in QC form.

I was surfing the net 2 weeks ago and found an R/T page that listed the number of R/T's produced. It also broke down the number of CC's, RC's, and colors for each year. I can't find it now for the life of me. I should have saved it in my favorites. I'm still loking...........

Shark Blue is also a pretty rare color. Ive only seen one dakota with that color. I don't think they made any RTs int that color at all.
