When did you fall in love with Trans Ams?
I remember that I used to watch the Knight Rider when I was in kinder garten, then I just fell in love it Kitt. I used to dream about the car everyday. I really fell in love with the Ws6s one day when I was hanging out with a friend, then I said "That's my car" then he said "no, it is mine", then me again "shut up bi-atch! it is mine" (at that time, i had like 8 bucks in my pocket but I was just talking sh...) What about everyone one here, how was it? I want to thank Dimitri for inspiring me to start a new thread by posting his picture inside a T/A like 8 years ago.

I have to say that I fell in love with the TA when I first saw Smokey and the Bandit. Then even more when I saw Knight Rider, then even more when I saw a Black 1993 TA in the Showroom of the local Pontiac Dealer

I've always loved Muscle Cars in general but I really fell in love with Trans Ams when I saw an 98-01 Trans Am WS.6 at a Car Show in San Francisco sophmore year when I was in High School... Funny thing is after seeing that car, I kept telling myself that I'm gonna get one of those when I get in the Military (because then I'd be able to afford it) and what do you know a few years later after two cars went to sh*ts on me I finally got my WS6. But I am in love with these cars...

I'd have to say I fell in love with Trans ams about 10 years ago when I was in 6th grade. My sisters boyfriend's brother bought a black '95 T/A with headers, ORY and borla exhaust. It was the baddest looking, toughest sounding car around. Since that day forward that was the car I was gonna get, 7 years later I finally got her on My own when I was a senior in highschool. Not bad for My first car. Funny thing is, My dads first car was a '68 Formula 400 and My moms first car was a '69 327 bird. I guess I was just meant to be.

I got sucked into a world called "Knight Rider". I remember sitting Indian style in front of the TV in 1982 and saying "I want one of those." Going a little retro also seeing Smokey and the Bandit some 8 years after it came out. I then learned everything I could about Firebirds. It got to where I love every generation Bird, from '67 to '02. I had a 89 Formula 350 I converted into a Knight Rider conversion. Here a few pics of my KARR that I owned for 8 years.
I just sold it in May 2006. I've had my 2000 for 1 1/2 years now. It came down to getting out of debt and a down payment for a house. Had to pick one. Hardest decision I've ever made. But in a few years and a few more pay raises, I'll start another one. Kinda like any install, once you do it once, the next time will be faster and easier.

I was 17 worked at a Mall in Birch Run, MI. I was outside on my break and I saw a T/A vert. This was way before I was into cars then alone afford to pay for one. I never thought I'd ever have my WS6's that I have today but I do and I love them.

Smokey and the Bandit. I even had a Hot Wheels of the T/A. That hood bird hooked me. Someday it will be mine. Oh yes, it WILL be MINE!

Same here - Fell is love with KITT when I was a kid. Bought my 1st firebird in 1992.
But it wasnt until I saw a Black 1996 Ram Air Trans AM sitting on the dealerships showroom floor. OMG, I creamed my pants - and had to have one. I ordered my 1997 TA WS6 a few months later.

I was I love with the 1977 -78 since I passed my license but my father did not agree on buying one for me
And smoky and the bandit made me think that soothing is missing in my life.
And still is.
