Re: so what do you say?
I think there is a difference. There are just firebirds and Trans Ams then you have the Ws6's

Re: so what do you say?
I have a 94 formula, I call it a firebird. its not a t/a, the main dif. is visual, its a great sleeper because there are alot of v6 firebirds that look alot like it and most people underestimate it, a quick look can't tell the difference, it takes a little time to tell, the tires, dual exhuast and the formula v8 stickers, which are small, and the others are popular mods for a 6...

Re: so what do you say?
They're ALL "Firebirds". Trans Am is an optional package... But the base "F-Body" is the Firebird (Pontiac).
They were Firebirds before T/A existed...

Re: so what do you say?
People always call my v6 a Trans Am. I just smile and nod.

Re: so what do you say?
The 4th gen T/A's have the raised spoiler and a different front fascia (as well as the formulas). The WS6's also had the much desired Ram Air hood. Different models came with different rims as well.

Excluding the 93's and 94's, which you had to order the Trans Am GT package to get the high rise spoiler.
