Yes they did.

Light Crystal Blue with Crystal Blue interior

I owned a 4-banger with this color combo, but it was available on 5,0 LX's as well. Pretty rare combo. I've seen V8's though as i have a link to this color

this car is a notch, does the blue option still apply. I may have misdirected using the word coupe.

Yes, Any color that came on an LX hatch also came on the coupe.

The color was not available for GT's however

Nope. For whatever reason, the book I have just has the numbers for the 5.0's.

Overall, 27,680 4 cyl. hatches were made in 1990. Roughly 2.8% of the 5.0 hatches produced were light crystal blue. Assuming the 5.0 numbers are sort of in line with the 4 cyl. cars, you'd have about 760 light crystal blue 4 cyl. hatches produced in 1990.

In 1991 100 light crystal blue 5.0 notches were produced, 349 5.0 hatches were produced, and using the same math as above, about 570 4 cyl. hatches came optioned in this color.

Between both years, maybe 500-600 lx verts were made with this color as well.
