650HP Monster. 1 of 50 Pontiac Trans Am Blackbird 

Since when did Joe Pesci start doing car reviews 😂

Those cars are already powerful at 325 horses I can imagine 650. I will probably have to build an automatic. I have one 😉

Cool vid! Here's an interesting story: My uncle owned at one point thee actual prototype blackbird which was titled as "PR-1." It was a silver T-Top car. There was also "PR-2" which was the convertible version. "PR-1"was built as a phase 1 car with 380hp. It was actually considered as a "Year One/Carl Black Blackbird Edition." I know it's alot titles wrapped up into one. In 2005 we entered the car at the Hot Rod Power Tour which started in Milwaukee. The folks at Year One stopped by to see the car and even gave us special silver decals to put on the window. We only drove it for one segment of tour but we had a blast. I just can't get over the chambered exhaust system and the way it was designed to be even considered as street legal "he-he". Eventually he sold the car and then end up getting another one, only it was now a phase 2 car with 425hp and it was now called as a Carl Black Edition- the blackbird was removed because of legalities. (From what I was told- Matt Murphy would know why) but that car was even meaner. What blows me away between these two cars is that everything that was done from Carl Black, only the suspension was pretty much stock! I would know because I had one of them on the lift and did a inspection while doing the brakes. It's crazy with that amount of torque and horsepower these guys didnt try to beef up the suspension any better the the stock WS6 suspension package and lowered springs with the torque thrust wheels. But either way these cars are very special and rare!

Best looking would go for more the 70s for Trans Ams. That generation shines like no other no matter if it's slow or not. The 67, and the GTO from 66-69 were fantastic Pontiac designs

Gorgeous Trans Am

well floor it damn it! WTF!

Really = who put u to in this car and WHY

Not pleasant to drive huh. You know how lucky you are to be behind the wheel of that beast? Trippin

George Clooney and Joe Pesci look real young here

This Trans Am was Actually Sold by Carl Black in Kennesaw, GA. The Formula version of these cars were sold in Roswell, GA. These were Built by GMMG in Marietta. Who also Built the Dale Earnhardt and Tom Henry Camaro's.

The bucking is the cam spec

It's on sale on cargurus for 75k

Sweet bird for sure!

That is a nice looking TA, would've been nice to drive it to the boonies n let it rip a few times.. nice work though!!

Sounds like you clucking to early from what I see but that's a nice black bird

It's bucking because the tune needs to be updated. U should have open the cut out?

Carl Black Pontiac Buick and GMC did zero modifications to that car, a company called GMMG outbof Marietta, GA did all the modifications for the cars that Carl black commissioned. I used to work there when I got out of high school and through college.

I'm 5'2 and the visor touches my head in these 4th gens

Worst two girls to ever get into a Trans Am. Give this car to a real man to review. Then everybody can see America at its finest. You'll see a great car actually get tested and see a good ole boy have fun. These little boys are doing a disgrace to this car and our Country. Sad days we live in.

Software doesn't weigh anything! LOL.

passenger, you do realize the seatbelt goes OVER the shoulder, right?

Your lugging the transmission. just make your higher in the rpm's.

👍

lol said he is not a car guy , might be a guy , guy

"I could only imagine what would happen if I floored this thing" * *doesn't floor it* * :(

Trailer park special! 80s, 90s Camero and firebirds used to be the mullet trailer park guys car.

Sounds stock to me, maybe an mild cam , definitely not 650hp , nice car tho

Jerking because it was bogging itself down my car does the same

Well it's no Gen2 TA, but pretty good. However, after 1981, the interiors became cheap looking. And you could no longer have a Pontiac engine after 1981. Not a huge fan of the Chevy engines in these, but I do understand GM's need for cost-cutting, & cheap can be attractive when you're on a budget.

So right away the driver claims he's never driven stick in his entire life, but then immediately says he owned a 6 speed 2000 formula? No wonder he couldn't drive his in the snow or this one at all, and also doesn't seem to know the specific mods of this car or why the "throttle is sensitive"... Not sure if he's representing an actual garage? Doesn't seem knowledgeable or experienced at all

IT LOOKS LIKE A BIG WATERBUG.

Wtf did I waste my time

Why so unpleasant to drive??

Dude did I miss the specs? How about 0-60 and quarter mile???? C’mon MAN

It's kinda like he has never driven a car with a big cam...and that much torque. And his comment that he had a great car and sold it because of snow..buy a damn truck and keep the car.
