Last year of the Trans Am.

Last year of the Trans Am. Awesome car ! Best handling car I have ever owned. Ride is a little firm, but I can live with that. Ram Air and LS-1 , 5.7 engine has eniough power to eat most other cars on the road !

2002 base model

I have had this car for four years now, and at first I loved it. Now it just gets in my way. Can't be driven in inclimate weather at all. Mileage is not good (21) for what it says it should get. Does have good qualities. I had subs in the trunk area and they banged. Just doesn't have much room to do anything. Great car if you want to improve it.

Best Car I've Ever Owned

I've owned many cars, but this 2002 WS6 is the best performing, most reliable car I've ever owned. 20mpg with the A/C on, it will pass anything(even a gas station), looks great, has been very reliable, & cheap to maintain.

Last of the Breed

I have always liked the look of Trans Ams. The WS6 is a real powerhouse and I really enjoy driving it. Drive it home 2000 miles after purchase and really enjoyed the adventure. Not many cars like this around our community, so gets lots of looks and compliments. sounds great. looks great. A pleasure to drive a powerful car like this.

Awesome Summer Toy

I love this car. I have owner many sprts cars including corvettes, etc. I traded my Corvette for this and would do it over and over again. It is almost as fast as my Corvette but I can take my kids with me now for summer cruises with the top down, which I could not do with my Vet. Performance is top notch, exterior looks better than most other sports cars out there. Interior is comfortable, but no tall people in the back seat. Has ample trunk space and is just sexy.

Weekend Warrior

Great car, always turns heads. I am a big fan of vehicles that aren't often seen on the road, I can honestly say I am a proud owner of a 2002 Trans Am WS6. Too often do I see mustangs and corvettes on the road! The only downside I see to this vehicle is the Turnsignals, there are ways to fix this problem i.e. drilling holes or replacing the housing, but originally the bulbs popped everytime moisture made its way into the housing. Besides that, its the greatest vehicle I have ever owned and I don't plan on getting rid of it anytime soon!
