Default Check out this 98 Recaro

Take a look at this 98 I found online. Looks alright but the price is kinda high for a 98. Take a look and let me know what you think.

Where's the "recaro"?? Funny he claims recaro edition or somethign, yet no pics of the front seats. From the one pic, they look like stock leather seats from the back. I've never heard of a 98 Recaro edition. Plus he says '2003 was the last year for these', so already he's a dick who doesn't know what he's talking about. Seems high for a base TA with just a lid and filthy engine bay.

In the one pic of the back seat, you can see the factory seat pushed forward. Definitely nothing Recaro about that car.

That car is maybe worth $9K max. There was no '98 "Recaro" Trans Am.

As everyone else has said..the Recaro T/A's only existed through 84, and then the Recaro seats where only optional in the Firebirds (any of them could be ordered with Recaros or Lear Siegler seats) through 1986. The Recaros were dropped in 87 because that's when Pontiac came out with the factory multiadjustable "Lumbar" seats that lasted right up until 2002.
