I think for situations where a color (like black) wasn't available that year and only a handful can be documented as being special ordered in black (like my old 1972 Formula 455HO Firebird that they made two customer ordered cars in black), it certainly does. It was around a 30% bump in value when I sold it as compared to a standard color.

Steve, does PHS have the data on the Pontiac special paint cars showing the numbers? That would probably add value if there is proof that x number of cars had a certain non standard color.
