Just making a thread about the Sevan Series Trans Am since they are so hard to find information about.
The Sevan Series Trans Am's came from Evan's Pontiac in Dallas, which was sold to another dealer before 2002.
The 2000 Sevan Series does not have any of the LG motorsports upgrades on it like the 1999 T/A did.
What came with the 2000 Sevan Series Trans am was:
-17x9.5 enkei winsome rims (I believe 1999 used LG Motorsports G2 World Challenge Rims 17x9.5)
-Borla Catback Exhaust
-WS6 style Ram air hood (1999 used raptor hood)
-Eibach Pro Lowering kit (2")
-Decals on the doors
-Large K&N air filter
-P275/40ZR17 TOYO V1 Speed Rated Tires

The exact number of these cars made is unknown, but lies in between 30-50 in 2000.
If anything seems wrong just comment and I will edit this post.
If anyone else has a 2000 Sevan Series it would be nice to comment in this thread so there can some kind of record of how many still exist because there is no registry for these cars like the firehawks and ws6's.

There's a ton of dealers out there who make their own "series" or "special edition" of cars. It's pretty common in corvettes. All the no-name dealers just want to become the next Nickey or Baldwin/Motion...if it's not done through or with GM, they usually aren't worth much more than the standard cars.

Maybe for corvettes, but as everyone knows a trans am is not a corvette.
Sure maybe they are not worth a whole lot more, but for trans ams this was not common for dealers to modify them.
Not sure how many other dealers did something special with the trans am but I know it was not more than 5 others.

nice little thread thats shows the different trans am editions from 98-02.

I understand what your saying about not being done through GM.
Just the Sevan Series is like the ws6 but better to me at least.
You also don't see these cars commonly for sale or at all.

My buddy had one in high School and into college. Very sweet cars. Sold it a few years back. Was in great condition then.

They are pretty sweet and fun to drive.
The 2" drop really helps handling around curves, but man you have be careful over bumps and parking lot entrances with a hill.

After seeing your post in my car's thread, I'm pretty sure mine is a 99 Sevans series. Can't pinpoint exactly where the car was sold, but it matches all the descriptions and there is an old EVANS dealership card with the Manifest

I have a 2001 Sevan Series with 6600 miles, Black on Black W/desert convertable top.

As for your decal, you can try dripping wet (google search "dripping wet decals) and I'm sure they can hook you up.
