Nice car. Mines a black 89 GTA under the wrench. I am going 383 stroker. Yours looks nice , the lettering is not for me. To each his own. I hope my paint looks like yours when I am done. Mines OK but has alot of light scratchs. GOT TO LOVE A BLACK GTA

Very sweet car!

I really like the door badge...but. I love the 15th T/A style "TransAm" along the door, but I dont think the "GTA" part works IMO.

Either way, it is very sweet and you get lots of credit for the door decals (and doing them tastefully!) in my book

Looks great

Sweet azz ride. I gotta get on the "no sticker" bandwagon though. Either Trans Am or GTA not both IMHO.

Opinions are opinions until someone acts upon it, then afterwards it becomes advice.

That car has too nice of a paint job to clutter it all up. :nono:

It is truly a beautiful car that any one of us would be proud to own.

I'll pass on the door decals too
Otherwise it ROCKS!!
Too bad the TTA's didn't come in Black especially considering the engine they got. White stinks on GTA's "My opinion"

lookin' good

Your GTA does look very nice and clean.I like it but I haven't decided 'bout the door decals.I think they look good.It gives your car personality.
--just my opinion

Beautifuul car man!!!!!!! Do you by any chance have the " gta trans am" eyebrow across the top of your windshield like the ram air hood gta on
http://www.gtautoacc.net/dirks.html
Scroll down and you will see the one I am talking about. I think I saw a pic of your car a while ago but I dont remember if it has the eyebrow. Ive been looking for it everywhere and I cant find it.

That is a beautiful GTA!!! The black ones look great with the stickers, and the stickers are rare. I wish my black 89 GTA had an engine so i could make it look like that. Gotta love black GTA's

Bitchin'... I don't care for Firebirds, usually, but this one's nice. Love the color scheme. I would have gone with some tasteful stripes rather than the lettering, but I certainly agree that the car needed some more gold to offset the black.
