Pretty simple duff, people vote for what they own, and a lot of people also think the latest is also the greatest...

Hard to beat 67-68 400 cars, and 70-73 Formulas/T/A's in any regard styling wise.

It's not manditory for a late-model 'bird owner to have to like all the generations.

98 to 02 are my favorite but, the 70 to 73 is right up there too.

that last year is my Fav by far. Granted the Smokey and Bandit editions where bad *** too. As far as a 08 later model. I am like yeah and na on it. The art work I have seen is nice but damn near a Camaro. And as of now my heart is on a Camaro. Lets first hope that GM gets the Camaro right first with the power plant and all the small things incl price tag before we worry about a T/A.

For me a Lucern blue 72 Trans Am does it for me, those are just great looking cars, next is the 77-78 style, also awesome looking, then comes the 98-02 Ram Air cars, the front is just in your face and looks like a Trans Am.

70-73 both the TA and Formulas - The front end and hoods were just killer!

Then LS1 Formula Firehawks

69 Trans Am

in that order then ALL the rest of them!

As for power - The old Pontiac motors make plenty of power when built right as do the LT1 and LS1's ..... duh!
