Actual pictures of the new Trans Am concept

[240sxDann]

I like this 10x more then the 2010 Camaro, I don't know why. The wheels are sick. I think the entire thing is just perfect EXCEPT the way the spoiler curves around. Reminds me of like...idk..a bowl or something.

at this point i'm happy as a pig in **** that pontiac is no more... because i definitely would have racked my brains out trying to figure out a way to buy this and keep the mustang...

[HickRocket1258]

Damn, that doesn't look to bad compared to sketches I saw of it.

[BigWhiteTodd]

sick camaro body kit.

[BigWhiteTodd]

I noticed no difference between the engine in the "TA" versus an SS1/SS2 Cammy....or a G8 GXP.

[TNTramair]

looks better then the lingenfelter version....but i would take either one.

this one packs a nice punch though with a 455 under the hood. wheels are disgusting but thats nothing that cant be changed.

I Love those wheels even though they look like a pain to clean

[3rdGenMr2Girl]

i guess american cars really don't do it for me.

[olletsocmit]

yea, i dont like it either, not at all.

[Khellen]

It looks like a camaro with a chicken on the hood. At least the last gen of firebirds stood out as firebirds....

ya'll must not be looking at it hard enough then. i know there is some glare on the black paint, but come on... it certainly stands out. the front, rear and and hood are completely different.

Redesigned, yes please!

[Scapegoat]

eh, the 70's era trans ams were the best. the 72 specifically for its engine option, though the later 78ish ones (bandit) were my favorites style wise

[Rush]

Not for me.

[DPancoast]

looks great in black

[240sxDann]

I would rock it in a heartbeat. I like it more then the camaro, the camaros are SEXY but...boring...compared to this.

Redesigned, yes please!

And yes! I agree! Love those cars.

[turboman808]

I thought this was gonna be more pictures of that white monstrisity. The vlack firebird looks pretty dam cool.

Or maybe I watched way to much smokey and the bandit as a kid.

[FocusDude]

The rear end and rear quarter panel are tough to make a true decision off of, the amount of black and varying glares just make it all look .w!R&mcs12
From the front though it looks badass! Much better then the concept i posted or the lingenfelter posted above.

The shaker has 6.2 on it... But I can't find any specs- the package they sell has no mention either.

[evomike]

All this talk about it's just Camaro witha body kit, that's all a firebird ever was to begin with.

thank you

[Ridachu]

Concept 2010 looks like a mustang/caddie mix....pretty much,been watching too much pimp my ride. Looks more like an american car trying to be european....ex. the ne camaro, its looking worse and worse with every new body style. Buy your granmoms monte carlo/cutless/w/e and build a motor and beat on ricers all day idk about anyone esle but almost every new muscle car looks like fast and the furious got to it...just my opinions

[superg6819]

ewwwwww!

[SleeperGoat]

If anyone was to go about a way of buying this i'd probably wait till the Z28 Supercharged Camaro came out then send it out for the kit but then again you could buy a Z06 for as much as thats gonna run ya.

not sure how something trying to be european looks like something out of the fast and the furious.

its ok not to like something, its not ok to make ridiculous statements.

I could be wrong, so please point it out to me, where is there european influences on the camaro? nothing about it says fiat, lotus, porsche, bmw, ferrari, etc, to me. for that matter list out the influences of european styling on the challenger and mustang b/c i am interested in what they may be.

i'd buy one of these in a heart beat if they were a production offering. i won't be buying a camaro and sending it somewhere to get "trans am" treatment... its still not a trans am... and it won't be a trans am with a bowtie on it

uhmmm...what?!??!?:bigeek: please stop.

why is it when a new car comes out its allways ,"oh, well they brought that out to beat ricers..." are you kidding me? do you think GM's sole purpose in releasing this car was to "beat ricers"?? AND....where in the hell do you see european styling?? especially if it looks like a "caddy/mustang" mix??? which i have no idea where you're getting that one either but hey....you're on a roll so go with it. than there's the Fast and Furious relation...... cant wait to hear this brillient observation....................

[JerseyTuscani]

well i mean Chevy did make the ZR-1 just beat the GT-R around the ring so maybe they are all about beating ricers.......lol...j/k. don't want to start a whole gt-r vs. zr-1 debate.

[Fujito]

What a beast! I love it.
All the new muscle cars better be in the next Transformers. And they better fricken put the Evo X in there.

[CarbonIS]

i find it hard to understand how this will ever be in production since pontiac is no more

[TurboTagTeam]

Thats a 2010 camaro with a "trans am bodykit". It's at SEMA right now. I ran into it looking for pics of my brother's 69 camaro wich is also at SEMA.

[CarbonIS]

yeah i know thats why i dont understand why people are calling it a trans am concept lol

[JB'sLGT]

^because it won't be long before you can buy your very own 2010 Trans Am. Someone is going to start churning out TA conversions. I'm pretty sure they can legally call it a Trans Am too.

[SleeperGoat]

Its not a production car if thats what people are wondering. Its going to be sold by a 3rd party company like Saleen or Roush would be for the mustang. Last i check it was 10 grand for the kit once they finally release it into production which was suppose to be shorty after this show an you have to supply your on 2010+ camaro. The kits pretty much the same as if you bought a C6 an wanted to just slap on Z06 fenders according to the Mag i was reading.

[BlkWhtTSI]

Meh not a fan, needs to be more steamlined and pointed like the older firebirds.

[97slocav]

that car is so ****ing nice. if i wasnt planning on buying an 09 colbalt ss i would buy a camaro and have that done

[2G_TSi]

hmm, thats pretty cool though, i like it. I say redesign the fourth gens though, those things are amazing

I'm sorry, but are you mentally challenged or did you have a huge brain fart?

[jnr5005]

That looks great! Thanks for posting the link. It doesn't look like what you would expect of a real Trans Am though.The Lingenfelter one looks like a crappy kit in comparison. LS1 Trans Ams are still hot and very attainable...I want another.

[StylezTA]

UHHH ugly.

[i_ride_fieroGT]

Its nice but i still prefer the 98-02 models better. No not just because i have one but it think its more agressive looking. And since pontiac is no more by by birdy:(

[coreycooper]

i like the way it looks .. but ive seen one in person.. and the body kit fitment is not very nice.. althought it is better looking then the lingenfelter the lingenfelter is of much better quality

[856jersey]

I just like the wheels

Ooo, nice comeback! Really had to reach deep for that, didn't you?

You're lame and obviously challenged.

lol keep telling yourself that. It's not my problem you wasted too much money on a car company that shouldn't still be around.
