Topic says it all.

 

As much as I love your car, I still love black

 

I go with the 3rd Gen. Stock for stock they be slower, but you can make a 3rd Gen faster, but you can't make a 4th Gen look better.

 

3rd

 

Third Generation = Looks good.

4th Generation = Doesn't.

 

Ohh, generation . I thought it was about color. Third of course, but 99-02 T/A's are sweet as hell

 

I like 3rdgens better but that hood doesn't go. I pick the 4thgen in that pic.

 

3rdgen. 4thgen a very close second.

 

My self I think 4th kicks arz but way to much $$$ for me to own one. Probably in another 10 years the fire hawks will be affordable.
Maybe Ill get smart one day and earn a ton of money and just have one for every season =)

 

I.... just like the picture you posted. Nice-lookin little community going on there, looks like some of the places my friends and I skated as kids. On a warm but shady summer day with the smell of growing things in the air, everyone lounging on deck chairs and swings I think I digressed at some point.

I prefer 3rd as well. But I dunno if that is an honest, point by point opinion, or if I feel that way simply because I own one.

 

86Fyrbird, youre getting to be as bad as Zepher. Any possible reason you can come up with to post a picture, you'll do.

 

Well, I like the looks of the thirdgen a little better. But if they were the same price and I could have either one....I'd take the 4th.

 

You noticed that too Adam?

 

Hey ain't nothing wrong with that, as MetalliCamaroRS says, AS LONG AS YOU HAVE A PAPER TOWEL READY

I love both of 86FyrBird and Zepher's cars, they are great (Can't forget Flyinlow89 )

 

I like to post, but Im not like that, I have a million more....I was gonna post a whole other series now just to show that Im not like that, but that woul kinda make it seem like I am.

 

that thirdgen is almost a 4th gen anyway. It got the hood, wheels, spoiler, etc.. But i voted for the third. the paint is awesome and the car is awesome

 

Your asking a 3rd gen board which do they like better, 3rd or 4th?




oh i guess i'll say third two!

 

i never have like the style of the 4th gen so im definatly with 3rd..

 

I love your car, it really like it much better than the 4th gen, dont get me wrong, 4th gens are nice, but i just like the look of your car the most

 

sorry to say but for birds........i prefer the 4th gen..........i got to drive several 2002 trans ams at work, and lemme just say........they are soooooooooo cool

and yes i did even get to drive the 2002 collector edition!!!!!

dont get me wrong though........3rd gen birds still kick a$$

 

1st Gen ! but of the 2 the 4th gen T/A,I would pick the 3rd if they were Camaros.

 

I knida like 2 and 3 gens....maybe it's only because I own one of each.....

Oh yeah, where did you get that avatar????

 

:sillylol: I can't believe you remembered that!

 

Sorry guys but I like the 4th gen birds over 3rd gen.Now camaro's 3rd gen all the way.

 

in that pic i like the third gen the best only because it has modifications... i see lots of 4th gen's round here and they all look exactly the same, same w/ the 3rd gens too. i hate the stock look,,,, if only i had more money over all i would rather take a 4th gen and custom paint it w/ flames or something and trick it out or whatever.

 

I remember him saying that too!

 

I broke the tie!!!

Love the car 86FyrBrd. Mine will look very close to yours in a couple of years. The black leather fourthgen seats are already on the way, along with the black interior panels. RAII is not far off.

Anybody know of a good place to get black GTA door panels?? the sponsors are sold out

 

I voted for your's (even though I prefer black) but don't ask my opinion about a black '97 WS6 T/A - those were the best looking 4th gen ,hands down, IMO!!

 

Am I the only one that is surprised about how many votes the 4th gen has got on a third gen site?

IMO - 4th Gens are ugly, however there are aspects of the 4th Gen I like. The interior is awsome (hence the reason why I am putting it im my Camaro) The Drivetrain is very superior to ours (hence why I am putting a 4th Gen 3.4L V6 in my Camaro, and a LT1 in my next ride) And as far as exterior, the only thing I like is the 98+ Ram Air Hood and the T/A Taillights, Those are awsome. Just my .02

Long Live the Power the 4thGenerize the 3rd Gen!!!!!

 

No way the best 4th gen is a 2002 Firehawk!... here just compare

here is your 1998 WS6... i think its the same as 97

98WS6

compared to 2002 Firehawk

02Firehawk

 

I would say between those two, the orange firebird

 

I'm voting orange thirdgen here. I HATE the exteriors of the 4thgen birds, yet I love the interiors. Whereas I love the exterior of the Camaro, yet hate the cheap looking 4thgen camaro interior.

That's just me, though

 

Hmmm. Let's see.

Can you tell the difference between a 1997, and a 2002 Firehawk?

 

Continued...

 

A WS6 is not a firehawk, FYI

If we are talkin Firehawk, then my vote is for the Firehawk, otherwise its defiantly 86FryBird's awsome ride.

:hail: :hail: Firehawk :hail: :hail:

Vette Performance in the style of an F-Body, What more could ya ask for ???

BTW - A fourth Gen can be made to look awsome, but it would never come close to the third Gen. They are totally different cars, with only a name alike. I think I would take a 93-97 LT1 powered Trans am, pushing a T-56 and with the WS6 option and Black Leather Interior. The only change I would ake would be putting a 98+ Front Clip. Then Power goodies, I want a LT1, not a LS1, for a number of reasons...

 

y LT1 over LS1...i thought they fixed that weird knocking sound.

 

LS1 >LT1, powerwise

Firehawk>WS6, speedwise

They both look bad as all HELL..
86FyrBrd's = the black Firebird, b/c 86's isn't stock.....

all in all....if you have a L98 or better your car is awesome.... IMHO

 

What could you possibly gain from swapping a 3.1 for a 3.4????

 

NO! hahah j/k, does it matter ... all that matters is that its an F body

 

For Camaro's, I would say thirdgen all the way!!! 4thGen Camaros are too....round...for lack of a better word...

For Firebirds (and T/A and Firehawk), it would definitly have to be fourthgen. I think that they look meaner, especially in the rearview mirror!
