I bought a 1992 Trans Am GTA with a 5.7 liter engine, I know nothing about these kinda cars......I thought it was cool, a guy I worked for had it setting in his barns the first time I worked for him and the next time I worked for him he had it setting under an oak tree, He told me he bought it brand new off of the show room floor, A guy had ordered it and the number on the title wasn't low enough for him he wanted a lower number, the VIN # is 1G2FW2382NL200376....It is completley original with 112,000 miles on it.....minimal wear andtook it to a mechanic shop, they changed all the fluids plugs, etc and it fires up , guy told me the owner was truthful with me about it....People are telling me its kinda rare!! HOw do I document and find out the information, And then how do I find its value, Or is the value whatever I can get someone to pay?? PLease help you guys talk like you know what you are talking about.......

 

I moved your post from the 1LE thread since it's not related.

Based on the VIN you provided, you do have an 1992 GTA. There were 226 (not including exports) GTAs produced in 1992. Approximately 36 of them were the bright red color that you have. Only 80 GTAs had the factory CD player, which yours should have had. These figures are from GTA Source Page.

Your SPID sticker is located on the inside lid of the left-rear luggage compartment and has 3-character codes that define the options the car was built with. Definitions for those codes can be found on this site and others but some codes were reused across other GM vehicles, and sometimes also changed from one year to the next, so you have to be careful when decoding them.

You can also go to Compnine.com and enter your VIN to see a listing of the RPO codes for your vehicle along with generic descriptions.

While you have a low production vehicle, as sales dropped while the 4th Gen F-Body was getting ready, it's a normal 1992 GTA (top line model) and doesn't have any "special" options (1LE, etc).

 

As JT said above, look inside the car first. The magic code on the SPID sheet (inside the rear lock panel - left side hatch compartment) is Y84. That confirms GTA, regardless of missing badges, etc.

Also visit: gtasourcepage.com for more info.

Best regards.

 

1992 GTA Trans Ams with the 5.7 TPI are Rare so hold on to that baby because you won't see another for quite some time.

 

Thanks for the input.......This is all new to me, Would like to sell it, but I cant get anyone to tell me what it is worth!! One guy says its NOT RARE AT ALL and someone else says its rare.....I have not even found any car on this sight that seems close, Where have all the 506 went???

 

All depends on condition, smell, and how good it runs.

If its a convertible, then its rare. Otherwise 92's were the last run year for GTAs - 3rd gen as we all know.

Fair condition - right around $4K or less. Mine had 61K miles paid in that neighborhood needed paint and some mechanical work.. If its a cherry then get $5 to 6K.

Good luck.

 

You had a 1992 GTA with the 5.7 and sold it?

 

I have been on here for the past 2 weeks looking for one just like mine and cannot even find one, lots of people have the ones with the 305 but have swapped out the motors to get a 350, Only found 1 and he wanted $ 14,000 from 2006. Dont know if he got it!

 

There was no 1992 GTA Convertibles but there was 1992 T/A Convertibles.

As far as worth, it significantly depends on the condition, how it appears, mechanical condition, mileage and what someone is willing to pay will be the bottom line.

 

sounds like a nice car.

Pictures help.

 

Does sound like a nice car and having the L98 in it makes it that much cooler. Post some pix.

 

There were only a handful of GTAs made for 1992, so yes, your car is rare, as far as production numbers goes. What color is the interior? Still no pictures?!?!

 

I have been trying to post pictures...I am not that computer savy???
The color of the interior is light tan leather....If anyone can help on posting pictures, I could use the help.......My GTA is not a covertible, sorry if I posted it that way!!

 

Brief instructions can be found below:

If not, email them to jt@thirdgen.org and I'll post some of them.

There is no question that it's a GTA as the VIN provided has the proper GTA RPO code (Y84).

 

Can't wait to see pics!

Good information provided by all here. Put simply: if you've got a '92 GTA, it's a keeper.
