2001 Trans Am WS6, 6spd - 61k miles. I hate to do this, but it's time to sell the car. She is a red 2001 TA WS6, 6 speed with black leather interior. I am the 2nd owner. I bought the car in 2002 and it has 11k miles on it. The original owner was a female and the car had clearly been babied. The car now has 61k miles. I've upgraded many of the parts and all the installations were done by reputable performance shops. When the car was cam only she made 470 on the spray. No idea what sort of power she would make on the spray now as I had her tuned for a N/A setup.
Off the top of my head here are some of the mods on the car right now:
PRC 5.3 heads.
FMS 226/226 .575/.575 112+4 LSA (Car pulls like a freight train up to 6800rpm).
Moser 9" with trutrac posi and 4.11's.
Cross drilled/slotted rotors.
Centerforce clutch specific for N20 or blown applications.
NOS 5177 kit(Hasn't been used since the heads/rear were installed)
Pro 5.0 with LSS.
Vacuum and A/F gauges mounted on the A-Pillar. N20 gauge mounted where the center console ashtray used to be.
LT's with magnaflow custom true duals.
Custom painted rear "Trans Am firechicken" center section.
BMR lowering springs
BMR panhard bar and relocation brackets
BMR subframe connectors
Spohn adj torque arm with driveshaft safety loop.
17x9 and 17x11 TT II's.
Stock Goodyear F1's up front and 315//35/17 Nitto 555r's in the rear (lots of tread left)
Custom tune using HP tuners by Jeff @ PSI in Glen Burnie. N/A the car made just over 400rwhp after the 9" was installed.
ASP underdrive pulley (not installed, but it will come with the car).
Double roller timing chain (not installed, but it will come with the car).
Wings West ground effects kit.
In the last few years I have also replaced both window motors and the alternator. I also just replaced the battery a month or two ago.
Issues with the car - I've taken very good care of the car and she stays in a garage every night, but she is 7yrs old and has some blemishes/scratches here and there from the last 60k miles. Cosmetic... the front lip that came with the WW ground effects kit is not on the car as it needs to be repainted and re-attached. The passenger WW side skirt/rocker panel needs to be taken off the car, repainted and reattached. (I turned into a parking lot and cut the turn too close and scraped it against a parking curb). Also this summer the car was down in OCean City for Hot Rod week and there was a nasty thunderstorm which blew something into the car. Whatever it was took a chip out of the fiberglass spoiler.
The car runs very well and I get a lot of compliments on her whenever I take her out. She never stalls and is very tame until you decide to get into it.
As far as racing her, yes she's been raced at a few drag strips, but not in the last almost 2 yrs. Total I would guess she has maybe 20-30 passes at the track in the last 6yrs. Best time I ever ran was N/A 12.20 @ 120mph with a 1.8 or 1.9 60'.
I would give the exterior a 7/10 and the interior a 9/10.
I'm asking $15k.
Edit*** added some pics...
Here is a pic of the chip on the spoiler... it's about the size of a nickel.
Panel of switches for the N20 and bottle heater. Also incorporated the TCS switch into the panel.

Bump for a good seller and a clean car.
I know Zack likes to point out all the minor flaws in his car, but I have ridden in it MANY times and have not noticed the little stuff he points out. The ground effects are easily fixed and so is the chip. Paint on this car is in really good condition. Car sounds great and pulls real strong.
I think it's got some 11's in it for sure, those passes were made a Capitol on test and tune nights. With a bigger bump stick, no reason this car couldn't run a 10.90 on tire. All the parts are there, and someone is getting a great car.
