Sounds like a sweet car. Really need to see pictures of paint & interior. Probably anywhere from $9,000 to $15,000 depending on cosmetic condition.

Nice car! *Ah C5R block, sick! I would say highest would probably be in the low 20k range.

Sharp looking car! C5R block - BES definitely cool stuff in my book.


Really hard to put a price on the car. Maybe $20,000 with the right buyer. Lot of folks are afraid of heavily mod'd cars.

I agree that people are afraid of.heavily nodded cars, but they really shouldn't be considering the block and the mods. That motor is pretty much bulletproof especially not running any boost or nitrous. With the mods it has along with the condition it's in(I rarely ever see TAs.without cracked door panels) it's black with tan interior I don't see that a lot as far as 4th gens(dunno how rare that is) I wouldn't be shocked to see this listed in the low to mid 20s....Hell, right now on eBay there's a white 99 TA at a dealership with a 454 LSX.crate motor and they are asking 41k.

$15,000 for anyone who is looking for a good looking Trans Am with low mileage. Upwards of $20,000 for someone who wants and appreciates the modifications the car has. Unfortunately, mods are never worth all that much. You often think they should add value to a car, but they don't. Often, it has the opposite effect.
