lbls1 · 02-06-2014, 09:39 PM

dgriddick · 02-06-2014, 09:49 PM

Absolutely not!! Why make a car GM stopped making.. besides.. the bandit was a low output v8 anyway

Revster · 02-06-2014, 10:21 PM

I have owned a many Pontiacs Love Trans Ams but no I would not.

They had a conversion at the local dealer in town. It was not attractive in my opinion, and very expensive. That being said, it is gone so someone disagreed with me!

If parts n labor were free then yes. But let's be honest, that's not gonna happen.

BluePhoenix · 02-08-2014, 09:32 AM

Why spend all that money to call it a Trans Am for it only to still be a Camaro? It's senseless.

Some of them aren't too bad but the problem is they get stupid expensive. It gets into ZL1/Z/28 type money which imho is just silly. At the end of the day you have a camaro with an expensive body kit. If there is one kit i would recommend that is somewhat affordable if you have to have one of these type of cars its the Z/TA.
