1mlb704 I first saw them a few years back and they're the best looking cars ever imo. I bought a 97 Camaro Z/28 6 months ago and have been slowly rebuilding it since then. It's 95% ready!
The Trans Am has always been my favorite as well. Harder to find them stock and in not abused. Thanks Kyle for reaching back to the 4th gens - your choice and your style are much appreciated!
Definitely, it's hard to keep up with all of the opportunities I have nowadays, but I'm going to make it one of my priorities to try and seek out unique older cars. It's so much fun!
You should review my 1990 Eclipse GSX when I get back from tech school in January. It may not have a headliner or the original shifter and radio. But it's a well preserved survivor that I got off the original owner
Man, I miss my 1996 Trans Am. I love the 4th gen Trans Ams the most out of all the generations of firebirds. The 30th anniversary Trans Am is my dream car, I drove one this past June. What a joy to drive! The 02 collector's edition Trans Am has really grown on me and I wouldn't mind owning one of those as well. The 1994 25th anniversary Trans Am is sweet too. Damn I miss Pontiac.
I love these Trans Ams I know a lot of people would disagree but I like the RAM Air Hood better than the Firehawk hood so I would change it to the RAM Air
Now THIS is why Saabkyle04 is Saabkyle04!!! In Cuba on the set of a Hollywood movie one week and bringing nostalgic American muscle the next week!! WOW!
I always loved the Pontiac Trans Am they are nice cars. I loved the Firebird too which the Trans Am is like a special package of the Firebird. I really love the the Camaros too.
As a long time Saabkyle04 fan...this is your best video in awhile. I love this generation of cars, and some of the more interesting stuff in general. While your newer videos are very professional (kudos to you on how much they have improved), there's always that part of me that enjoys seeing your older videos, in which the cars were either a little older, and/or a little more interesting and special! Good luck, and stay awesome!
Had this model in silver automatic the 2001 TransAm Firehawk with Bilstein etc traded it in for a Volvo V70 oceanRace station. The Firehawk only woke up at 70 always pulling at the stiruups. Frustrating on SoFl roads after getting up ver 130 realized I had family at home. It was my everyday commute. Glorious experience!! surprised my wife when I bought it. She was displayed on a ramp pointing up to the sky one of 450 made that year I mean the Firehawk not my wife.
It was part of the whole Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganisation plan, same thing happened to Oldsmobile, Saturn, Hummer & too a lesser degree Saab (sorry Kyle) The way both Ford & GM had been running their businesses this was inevitable at some point.
I used to have a 1999 Trans Am LT1 5.7 with dual exhaust pipes and T-tops, we had the car from September 12, 2004 to September 10, 2016. We sold it for $8000 dollars with 196,000 miles on it.
Thia was my old car. I traded it in for a 6 speed G8 GXP with 10k miles. I was the second owner and it was as clean as new. It crossed 16k miles on the way to the dealer:)
It's gonna be strange when mid 90's to early 00's cars like this become sought after classics always been interested in such oddballs as this is, from that era
Beautiful car, I would enjoy owning that. Upgrade those wheels to 19 by 11 with deep dish and 315 rear tires, add fender flares to fit those wheels and give it that intimidating look, replace the spoiler for the Trans-am wing, upgrade that muted exhaust for one that is more aggressive sounding and looking. Wow, i'm drooling.
As the owner of a 2002 Trans Am Firehawk that was ordered with the rare 1LE suspension package, I can assure you that the price for that option was $1899.
The only Firehawks that Top the LS1 2001-2002 Firehawk Trans Ams are the Original 1991-1992 Firehawk Formulas, they made 350hp and 390 lb-ft of Torque with a ZF 6-Speed manual.
