Saw that one. Nice! With 7k original miles it was just about new. I saw some 70's T/A's do quite well also. Properly cared for Trans Ams will always be collectable despite what some naysayers argue on this site. Those 70's editions weren't ultra low mileage garage queens either. I believe one had 50,000+ miles and the other 70,000+ miles which equates to 'weekend warrior' status and being driven a bit. Our LS1 versions have over 100HP more than those 70's editions so the future looks bright one day. Keep em nice if you don't have to DD.

I miss my 3rd Gen. I had a 1992 Green/Tan GTA 5.0 Auto. I like the 3rd Gen body style better than the 4th gens. Just cant make any real power with the motor without spending a bit of $.

Yeah, i saw them show a couple of the Smokey and the Bandit T/A's as part of their fantasy bid but didn't see them on the auction so i wasn't able to look at the up close or see what they went for.
