Default 10 Second Fully Built Turbocharged 6 speed Trans Am

Year: 1998
Make: Pontiac
Model: Trans Am
Price: $21000
Mileage: 98000
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): FL
Color: Silver
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive

If you're looking for a front to back fully built Trans Am with provenance, this is your car. It has been on the cover of GM High Tech Performance as well as High Performance Pontiac and "How to Turbocharge the LS1 Engine". This is a completely built 1998 Seabring Silver Trans Am. I've only had to do oil changes and spark plugs since I finished modding it. It was built with daily driver reliability and was my daily driver at one point. Now I just drive it on the weekend when I have time. I'm running around 8psi on the 78mm turbo so its not even working hard. Car has been 10.6 @ 132mph in the 1/4 mile driving to and front the track with a 6 speed and zero weight reduction on 8 psi on 93 octane. Car is on the Fastest 6 Speed list on this site. Full A/C system installed and functions but it has a small leak at the compressor (~$300 to replace). I can hop in the car whenever I want and the car fires up immediately and drives like stock until you push the gas pedal. Its fairly quiet considering the mods but screams when in boost. With the exhaust cutout open, its literally the best sound I've ever heard from a car. I don't need to sell it so don't bother lowballing, but since I don't drive it much I would rather someone own it who will appreciate it. This is a proven car, not someone who just finished their car and stating it makes XXXhp or SHOULD run XX.XX ET.

I always dreaded this day Nick :'(
I've known Nick and the car for over 10 years now and all i can say is this is the most ridiculous car Ive ever been in!! Its very deceitful, sounds and drives super stock, but when your ready to have some fun, hell breaks loose and breaks exotics hearts!
BUMP for an amazing car and a awesome, meticulous car guy!

TTT, weather is getting good for boosted cars. Don't buy an unproven car and take a chance!
