Default What is the best repair/service manual to buy for 02 Trans-Am?

I am looking to purchase a repair/service manual for my 02 Hawk but I see there are a lot of different ones out there. One that I found is a Chilton repair manual on amazon here
http://www.amazon.com/Chilton-Repair.../dp/B000CINJMG

Before I purchase one I wanted to make sure I am getting the best one out there as I plan on holding onto my Hawk as long as I am alive. Can anyone give me some tips on this?

thanks

I have a Haynes one that the previous owner gave me when I purchased the car. It doesn't have much, but it's enough to get you started. I then upgraded to esi so I can look it up quick on the computer, and purchased the GM factory service manuals for my year. $30 for all 4 I found on Ebay. I would personally get the GM manuals.
