Have to rock the 87-90 GTA body, particularly the 89 model for the options and engineering over the other model f-bodies. The amazing steering wheel audio controls that randomly work, the lines of the body for the aerodynamics, as well as many others.

I couldn't have said it any better than akanitro, so I'll just second what he said!

I've had both an 84 Camaro RS and my current 84 Firebird Trans Am. I personally like the TA better. It just looks nicer(except when the lights are up). It just looks cleaner and smoother.

Re: Poll Trans am(or Firebird) or Camaro?

When I went looking for my first car back in late 89, I was absolutely dead set on a Blue Iroc-Z.

Then I came across a fully loaded, Black on Black 83 Trans Am, and have had a Thirdgen Firebird ever since, 22 Years now.

I did end up with a Blue 88 Camaro for a daily driver for a few years though.
