That's a clean WS6, hopefully you'll be driving it soon.

Grand what? Lol. Nice car, but I'd wait for an LS2 GTO. Is there some reason why this particular car caught your eye? I almost bought an NHRA edition T/A. Just in case you didn't know, the NHRA's feature a power steering cooler, 3.23 gears for the A4's, and....................a keychain. Although I have to admit I didn't know you could get the WS6 and NHRA packages together-I thought they couldn't be combined?

Isn't this the same car posted in the 'Firebird' section?? Be careful. The Standard Catalog of Firebird says NO SUCH ANIMAL as a NHRA WS6 in 2001 or 2002. The NHRA option was offered only with the regular Trans Am and Formula in 2001. Someone else posted about the car being in an accident. Don't get too excited. Do your homework. Check the RPO codes for 1SH (NHRA) and of course WS6. It is easy to add on badges. If you don't care, then ignore this.

well i am not going to get this one. it may be the one in the firebird section that was wrecked. it is in fact a ws6 but not the NHRA. the car also has a rebuilt title so not for me.

btw a buddy of mine has a grand prix that runs 11.14 without spray lol thats no girl car

A GTP is a nice car, just not a V8 car. . . . Good luck, there are plenty of good f bodies out there for sale.
