Default Best Firebird/Trans Am body style?

Which bodystyle do you like the most?

My personal favorite is a 96-97 WS6 Formula.

Definitely the 1979-'81 (I just sold one recently). I love all the spoilers and wheel spats. But the interior is really cool, too. Much nicer, I think, than on the fourth-generation cars.

IMO, you can't go wrong with the last of the breed.

I own a 1999 WS.6, but that is my second choice.

1967.

the LS powered bodies. Just for the overall look of the car. It looks mean.

I like the 82-92 but I think you should have made a 91-92 range because they look even better.

85-90 T/A-GTAs are the hottest body style. Slap in LSx motor and have some fun.

Personally I think the LS1 Formulas, LS1 Formula Firehawks, and LT1 Trams Ams are the best looking birds.

I prefer the cleaner lines and more subtle styling of my 97 Formula, but I like the performance of the LS-1s.
