Well I used my RPO decoder and all to translate it all.....the only thing missing from the sticker was the Y84 code for the GTA....my big question is did regular Trans Ams have the option of the digital dash or was that a GTA exclusive option? I'm worried now that this might be a fake GTA.....

If the vin on that tag matches the vin on your car you don't have a GTA. The only way to have a GTA is to have that Y84 on the tag. Sorry. Someone probably had a GTA that got totalled and they put all the parts on to that car.

The Digital Dash was an option on the Trans Am, as it was on the GTA. You could get every option on a TA that you could get on the GTA. Except I do not beleive you could not get monochromatic paint from 87-90 on the Trans AM. Then you had to go to the GTA.

One of the differences on the outside is the lack of fender air extractors fomr 87-90 on the GTA, only the T/A had the provision for the Air extractor on the fender.
