It does and yet it doesnt. Its all about preference.

The Trans Am is one of the best looking car out there.

People who don't like the looks should at least admit that it looks nothing like any other car out there.

The only thing I think makes my Z-28 dated are my ugly *** snowflake wheels. GM could have gave us better wheels than the V6 ones.

I still remember the first time I ever saw a '98 WS6 , I still think they are one of the best and meanest looking cars out there. After mine sells I'm sure I'll kick myself in the *** everytime I see one.

I would say they still hold very well.

I was driving in my truck today and had a Black WS6 coming at me and good gawd does it look mean. I said to myself....that will never look out of style cause being "Bad ***" just never can be replaced.

I agree what was GM thinking one of the ugliest wheels I have ever seen.

Wish I had made it so the poll never closed

You could always get the 5 spoke wheels they used in '97 and '98. They should've kept those wheels 'till the end...

when i bougth my Z 3 years ago i did not look old at all, but now its over 10years old, (01.98), and yeah the design is getting old, but still it looks just as good as ever, the T/A's where the most beutyfull cars i've ever seen when they came out, but i think the camaro is starting to loog even better now than before, i.m.o it was the same with the 3rd gen, they look better now than 10years ago,

the new camaro isnt a Fbody, and never will, i've owned all of the fboddys, and the new one will not be one of them, but its a camaro, and it looks awesome and will drive good to, i hope they dont cancel it, the new challanger turned out to be a garbage so the camaro is our only hope

Boy was I right! Still one of the best looking cars out there. There may have not been 700hp Hellcats, 668hp Cadillacs, 755hp Corvettes when I posted this but the 4th gen WS6's are still (16 years later) one of the most beautiful cars ever built. And yes, a wife and 2 kids later, I miss that car...

The '98 WS6 was what started my love affair with these cars, and mine still looks great after sitting for 15 years. I'm hoping to have it on the road again by the end of summer!
