Check out my 89 Formula with 402ci LS2 then!!

I like my 02 it looks fast just sitting still. I would also like a 69 400 vert. and a 77 T/A SE.

98-02 Trans Ams for sure. Not a big fan of the Gen 2 or 3. Gen 1 is nice, but falls short of the 98-02. And I can never get used to the 93-97 front ends on either F-body. I just don't like em. And the WS6 in 98-02 has the best looking ram air hood!!!!

One thing is you'd really have to break down the third gen more. 82-84. 1985-1990 and 1991-1992.

Personally I liked 1985-1990 the best out of the third gens.

I love my 01 WS6 TA and would not trade it for any other year. I went with the 79 body style. I think the reason I chose it was because you don't see as many of them on the street any more. That is also the year that I want to rebuild.

I voted for the 89TTA because I have one and I love it, but I like the Smokey and Bandit cars as well. I like the 4th gen as well also, they are all mean looking.

My favorite is the 1970-1973. I really really like the twin scoop formula, that looks extremely wicked. My second favorite is from 1998-2002. The WS6 of course!
