Here's my new 2001 Trans Am WS.6
Its Pewter Metallic, with black leather interior. Its fully loaded, with all power accessories(windows, locks, mirrors, hatch, antenna) It came with a block heater, and automotic headlights(I now disabled them). It has T-Tops, and the driver and passenger side windows are tinted to approx 35%.

Performance mods include: SLP air lid, Flowmaster 80 Series muffler, custom exaust, 3.73 ring and pinion, and a minor tune by Katech(builders of the C5-R and CTS-vR racers).

Exterior mods: Red brake calipers, polished stainless steel Dual Dual exaust tips, all emblems and lettering in red, 35% tint on the sides.

Stereo: JVC EXAD DVD/CD/AM/FM head unit, stock 500watt Monsoon amp and 10 speaker system.

Bought it in December, 2004. My old 1985 Trans Am had finally died. I decided not to put anymore money into it. I decided I wanted to stick with a V8/RWD vehicle, since it was what I had driven since I got my license. I always loved the 98+ Trans Am WS6's. They are one of most aggressive looking cars on the road in my opinion. Being powered by the LS1, one of best V8s ever, was a huge plus. Great looks, great performance, and great(well decent) gas milage. Who could ask more?

First thing I did was change out the exhaust. The stock exhaust sound good at WOT, though it was a bit too quiet for my tastes. So I went with a Flowmaster 80 Series. Nice and aggressive tone. I also swapped out the stock exaust tips, they were simple polished tips, I went with polished stainless steel split tips. They fill out the exaust cutouts in the bumper nicely.

Next up was some exterior dressup. I thought red and pewter go togather nicely. So I put "Trans Am" door emblems, the front firebird emblem, the rear "Pontiac", and the "Ram Air" on the hood scoops in reflective red. The little "Pontiac" on the driver side headlight is in plain red.

I also painted the brake calipers red to match everything else.
