It s lot of fun, powerful car with a 305HP and exeptional handling on the street, dry or wet. Lateral movements are super, you are stick in the floor. Acceleration is great, just punch the pedal and you are leaving the other car in the smoke. thank you MR. BAHR

overall, i have had lots of fun with this vehicle. It is very fast and has the power when needed especially with the 6-spd transmission. i change the oil on a regular basis and i take care of so that it can last me a very long time. The only thing with these tras ams is that you pretty much have t live with the oil leaks that occur. you will not be able to avoid it since so much power creats lots of pressure thus causing oil leaks.

I have a 96 WS6 WITH 102,000 MILES THAT I BOUGHT FROM BRAND NEW... The car is hard to work on if you're not familiar... good luck trying to change the passenger side spark plugs a fuel pump will go out I have to drop the axle to drop the tank... And good luck trying to clean the inside of that front windshield!! I wouldn't pay no more than $6,000 firebird trans Am with an LT1... Don't believe me go find out.
