Title: OMG, I WANT one!!!
Post by: Sabre on April 14, 2017, 02:54:04 PM
Back when I'd just graduated from high school, the Pontiac TransAm was the car of my dreams. I never managed to get one, and any hope to get a brand new one was dashed when Pontiac closed it's doors. There's hope once again...

It even comes in the bright blue metallic that was my preferred livery. Unfortunately, they start at $85K. The "Smokey and the Bandit" commemorative addition apparently sold out immediately, and with a six-figure price tag.

Come on, Powerball! :banana:

The Challenger, Mustang, and T-Bird are still the best looking retro cars...

And here I'm just planning on dropping an LsX into my Trans Am when I can scrape the cash together.

Why am I thinking about a red scanner light?

I had a 77 TA 6.6 which had the shaker scoop. It was brown.

When I worked at a gas station at 17 years old, I dated a girl because she had a "macho T/A".

It had a 5 speed, I believe.........which seems really rare........had to put it into reverse or the key wouldn't come out of the ignition.

Saab always forced you to get car on reverse before removing key, good anti-theft of it's time I think.

If it's your dream car I can build you a 20 footer Bandit on
a budget. 😁
