Trans Am GT were the early LT1-year Trans Ams that came with the T43 spoiler option (the raised spoiler that became standard in later years, including the LS1 cars). Remember, some of the early 4th gen T/As came with the regular/low spoiler found on the Firebirds/Formulas.

The GT stands for what it is now after it hit the tree, a Giant Turd.
