Trans Ams look like they're having an identity crisis!

I'd give 2nd gen T/A's the win over Camaros(You gotta love the Smokey & The Bandit T/A). But 1st and 3rd gen, Camaros have the win by far. 4th gen is pretty close, but the T/A's look a little bit better, IMO.

here are ten reasons why the Trans Am is better

1. We do not look like chrysler concordes

2. You really do not need to touch a trans am to make it stand out. Unlike a camaro which you have to do like 15 exterior mods in order to make it not look like a v6

3. It is so much more bad *** to say "i drive Trans Am" hahah that one is just for fun

4. Our interiors are soooo much better

5. our seats are so much better

6. Our intimidation level is higher on the street based on looks

7. Most TA guys never look at a camaro and want it as bad as the camaro guys want a TA.

8. Exhaust Tips look better on our cars because of our bumpers. With the exception of the CME which is beautiful

9. There is not already like 8 of us in a parking lot when we go somewhere

10. Hell even on the ricer forums they all think the TA is so much faster the z28 or a Super Sport just cause we look so bad *** on the street.

lol, i love the look of a Camaro over any firebird EXCEPT the 91-92 Formula Firehawk. That's gotta be the sexiest car pontiac has ever built, with real performance parts.

I do agree with you in most of those, but look at it this way.

1. We don't have a 300 lbs. wing.
2. We don't get broken headlight motors.
3. We are lighter.
4. Any Camaro with TTII's just creams muscle.
5. We still rock Chevy motors, where are the Pontiac motors at?? 1981?
6. For the V6 part, i debadged my car ;-). Sleeper FTW.
7. Looks only scares ricers, lol. The 99-04 GT's looked mean when dropped, but are they scary?? I'll let you think about that one.

Sounds a little dumb, but i'm bored as hell, been sick and nothing to do in the past 3 days.

Oh, and the LT1 Camaro's are the ugliest thing ever.

I was reading a car magazine article the other day they did a test and ended up proving its a scientific fact that camaros drop the panties faster

Excellent write up on the "facts" (i.e. - opinions that I agree with)

I like camaros' looks and all, but just hearing someone say they own a camaro makes me think no offense camaro dudes and dudettes!

Then again, when my gf told her family that I drove a Trans Am, they all thought Bandit...

ok this was fun here is 10 more:

11. are headlight motor might not work sometimes. but they are the best looking flip up lights on any car period.

12. are ac vents can substitute for gauge pods

13. knight rider.......haselhoff knight rider

14. nicest side mirrors ever, they dont look so cheap like they do on camaro

15. there is a reason there is no 100 different type of aftermarket rear lights or alteezas for ta's. Because you don't mess with perfection.

16. our non functional ram air is better

17. no trans am police cruisers, every cop rather chase the bandit

18. we do not look like a catfish

19. You guys came first because we had to make up for your mistakes

20. this one is.....well......I will let it speak for itself
