Default 2002 Trans Am Slingshot Edition?

Ok I was looking on autotrader.com for a WS6 local and getting some pricing idea's when I found this ad.
http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=216478091

No I know I don't know a lot about WS6/SS but I've never heard of a factory WS6-Slingshot edition.

"This 2002 Pontiac Trans Am 2dr TRANS AM SLINGSHOT Hatchback features a 5.7L V8 PFI OHV 8cyl Gasoline engine. It is equipped with a 6 speed manual transmission. The vehicle is Bright Silver Metallic with a Ebony Full Leather interior. It is covered by a limited warranty. 2002 TRANS AM SLINGSHOT EDITION - ONLY 1 OF 1 MADE! MODIFIACATIONS GALORE AND TOO NUMEROUS TO LIST IN THIS SPACE. FAST AND YOU GET LOOKS EVERYWHERE YOU GO! MULTIPLE SHOW WINNING CAR. CANNOT AND WILL NOT EVER BE MADE AGAIN OR DUPLICATED! WE HAVE OVER 30 PAGES OF THE HISTORY AND DOCUMENTATION ON THIS CAR - PLEASE CALL FOR THE DETAILS! DON'T MISS THIS ONE!"

My quest is someone modded a WS6 and is trying to sell it off like a facory ride. But then again I could be wrong which is why I'm ask.

There is a thread about this car somewhere, try searching for it. I read a little about it. It's a real car, but noone likes it.

Ahh thanks.. I guess my 1st thing should have been to search (I normally do). Yeah I don't like it either. The headlights look like some kind of Ebay item with crappy fitment.

the whole car looks kind of cheesy to me, the logos look like they came straight out of an infomercial.

it's been on ebay a few times.
even with the practically nonexistant miles... i can't see enough done to it to make it worth $30-35k to someone who likes it. if i remember right the ebay listings said the same thing... "too many modifications to list in this space." it's bs.
