The 2002 model year is the last year for the f-bodies, therefore, I bought a 2002 Trans Am WS.6 before they become scarce. I loved the looks of Trans Ams and especially WS.6 models. This is my 4th f-body, previously owned 1988 Camaro 5SPD.[305v8], 1994 Z28-6SPD., 1995 Trans Am-6SPD., 1996 Z28-6SPD. and will say this is by far the best in looks, pure speed, handling-(275-40ZR17 wheels and tires sure help) and getting a thumbs up from other motorists. I was looking for a 6speed but got a great deal on an auto[4L60E] in arctic white that I couldn't pass up. Interior has fighter jet cockpit sensation, 500 watt monsoon audio. Got 25mpg-Greenville NC. to Erie PA. No problems as of 30k miles.

There is no car around that delivers anywhere near the performance per dollar as the Trans Am. Doesn't have quite the "status" symbol appeal of some other cars, but if your goal is pure performance, this car can't be beat. It's nice to pull up to a stop light next to sports cars that cost twice as much, only to see them disappearing in your rear view mirror after the light turns green.

Amazing acceleration from the 345hp/350lb-ft LS1 engine let's the V8 equipped Firebird's (and Camaro's) solidly take top honors for factory performance for the money. 0-60 in just over 5 seconds in the slowest form for mid $20k is unbelievable. Interior and exterior design is amazing, with the only commonly voiced complaint being that the doors are to long and heavy. Build quality is typical domestic fare, with plenty of plastic bits and cheap looks - But everything fits tight and is easy to reach/operate from the driver's seat.
GM's Huge Mistake

This car is the performance bargain of a lifetime. A car that out performs cars costing twice as much, along with it's menacing head-turning looks, how can you go wrong? Anyone who has the means and the opportunity to own this car would be doing themselves a huge favor to check it out. Once you drive it you'll understand. Why anyone would choose the uglier, boxy, slower Mustang is beyond me. GM's decision to end the Firebird/Camaro is a true shame. Pontiac is left with nothing but boring cars with body cladding.

I ordered my 2002 TransAm in April, the last month orders were accepted. It replaced a 2000 TransAm. T-top, WS6 handeling and performance package ... this car can't be beat for performance vs price. I'm really sorry Pontiac discontinued the Firebird/TransAm.
