Switching to TA
I guess the difference in the two cars comes down to what the person replying drives.
This is such a stupid thing to quibble about, sleek beek versus ram air hood.
Fact is that the one who wins the race is the one with the better reaction time and traction. That is how close the cars are.

opinions smell like ********....
Its all been said, Hood, wheels, taller airbox, 32mm sway bar, slightly better muffler. All of the benefits of which are very small and can rarely even be measured (power wise) the wheels help for handling, the extra 2mm on the swaybar... not so much. Its up to you, HOWEVER if you are going to put a hood on the car, or you would be happy with the WS6 wheels, get the WS6, you'll spend more than the difference for the car on aftermarket stuff.

I personally love the hood on the WS6, but that is the only difference that matters IMO. Most aftermarket intakes are better than both stock intakes, and who keeps the stock exhaust anyway? Then you realize that the suspension is due for some work at this rate. So all the differences get taken care of anyway (except for the look).

I also have another question about the traction control. On my SS i could turn Traction control with a flip of the switch i did not see a switch in the TA can you turn the traction control on the TA off or does it even have Traction control?

Anyway I have one of each and I do like the seats better in the Trans Am but i have owned 9 4th gen Camaros and only 1 Trans Am and I haven't even owned it for a week yet. The car came with a ram air hood which i sold ASAP. I like the stock hood like stated before too many WS6-WS7 and WS9 hoods out there

THE WS6 never got ANY suspension upgrades. The SS got the bigger swaybars not the Trans Am.
