Vehicle Description
The 1991 GTA Trans Am was Pontiac's pride and joy. They packed it
full of all the best performance goodies they could. A hot rod
motor, race tuned suspension, and the best aerodynamics to date.
Then they trimmed it out with leather seats and power everything,
to produce one awesome street car.
Stunning in Medium Green Metallic with gold mesh wheels and gold
highlights, this car really grabs your attention. When you look a
bit closer at the details, you can really see the how Pontiac's
design team took advantage of a wind tunnel to shape it. A low
slung front end with a split grill cuts the air. There is a
discreet, but telling, GTA Trans Am emblem on the hood between
hideaway headlights, which then flow back over rounded fenders. The
windshield hides the wipers under the back edge of the hood and
then slopes back at an-aero friendly 62 degrees. The pin-stripe
gracefully follows the curves of the body back to the flat, wrap
around rear wing at the trailing edge of the flush mounted hatch
glass. Tail lights are in a bar across the back with Pontiac
scripted in between them. The lower diffuser completes the aero
package, and the Gold wheels complete the looks of this car.
Now open the door and check out the special Beachwood interior. Sit
in the comfortable yet supportive, power leather seat, and grab
hold of that leather wrapped steering wheel. As you rest your arm
on the center console, you will notice that the controls for
mirrors and windows are right at your fingertips. The Shifter is
even tilted toward the driver for a better feel, and the radio,
heat and A/C controls are located just above that. A 140 MPH
speedometer and a tachometer are located just in front of the
steering wheel, with battery, fuel, temp, and oil gauges off to the
side. The door panels are also nicely trimmed out with comfortable
arm rests and pockets for drinks and miscellaneous items. Behind
those rear bucket seats is ample storage, and those seat backs can
be folded down to make for even more space under the hatch. It
seems like a nice place to spend some time driving, doesn't it?
The performance built into this GTA Trans Am is awesome. It starts
with a 350-cubic inch TPI (Tuned Port Injection) engine, with hi
flow, Siamesed, intake runners. Then, they up the game by adding in
some SLP (Street Legal Performance) dealer added options like,
Tri-Y stainless headers, a stainless, free flow exhaust, a cold air
intake package, and CAL-PAC high performance engine prom. A
four-speed automatic gets the power transferred toward the back
wheels. The suspension was included in all this focus on
performance too. MacPhearson struts with inboard coil springs on
control arms with a sway bar plant the front wheels firmly on the
ground. Coil springs and shocks with a torque arm to help resist
axle twist keep the rear end planted. Finally, add in an RPO R6P
option package that includes four-wheel disc brakes, an oil cooler,
and performance axle ratio, and you have one well engineered, hot
street car.
Come on down and check out Pontiac's pride and joy. Then take it
home and make it yours too.
