Default Ws7???

I once saw a Trans Am posted on e-bay and the guy said he converted it to a WS7. Did he make this up or is there really a WS7?

WS7 = a T/A that someone made look like a WS6, but it actually wasn't that way from the factory, and he is admitting it.

When someone has a non WS6 car but makes their car to look like one the person may put a WS7 badge on their car instead of a WS6 badge so that their car wouldn't be a WS6 poser. Not everyone adds the WS7 badge to their non WS6 cars, but it's a neat idea for someone who doesn't have the factory installed WS6 package but wants a badge on their car.
