TTA colors?

Sorry for the dumb question, never paid much attention to these cars, but are they all white with tan interior?

Also, are they typically worth more or less than say an 87 Turbo T assuming similar mods and condition?

Thanks

I have owned a lot of TTAs ... to me they are just starting to take off.... been a sleeper for years I'd say they are worth more than a T BUT not more than a GN right now.. that may change.. remember only 1500 cars ... and then how many are left ??? 8-900 MAYBE oh ya they are all white with a tan leather or velour interior... 30 or so hardtops the rest t roofs

Thanks guys. I loved the looks and handling of my 86 Trans Am back in the day and I love the power of my 87 T so it just makes sense to have both in one car - kinda like peanut butter and chocolate

The TTA is where the turbo six engine platform belonged from day one. The turbo Buick's are like a brick going down the road. You get over 100mph in a turbo Buick they go up. It starts to feel like you have no handling at all and it feels like your driving a brick into a wall of air. You go over 100 in a TTA they go down. The handling actually gets better and the car performs great. And that's a stock TTA and a modded GN.
