    1998 Pontiac Trans Am

    The Pontiac Trans Am offers super overall performance at a low point of entry. This is my third Trans Am and the best of the lot. The LS1 is a great engine, and maybe the best V-8 in the world, save for the LS6. A great value that is now dead. However, the new GTO will lead GM into mid-market greatness.

    I love the car! It's almost like my Vette but with a back seat!

    I am original owner of this beautiful chameleon colored blue green convertible! I ordered it new waited 2 1/2 months for it! Have 78,000 miles on her! Drove a 73 Mustang 25 yrs before i bought Trans Am. It has so much power with V8 LS 1 engine. So much fun to drive! Best car we ever had!

    Good horsepower, outruns most stock. Good buy vs any '93 to '02 Camaro, Firebird, and Mustang. Great style over all the others mild performance mods will crush the competition. The last Pontiac will ever make.
