WTF!? you know that the trans am and the z28 are the SAME CAR right? and when i say the same car, i mean, THE SAME CAR. They changed the name, and the badge, but it is the SAME CAR.

in case you didn't get that.

THE SAME CAR

^^ Do you have a link that you are getting these specs from? F-body's (camaros and T/A's/Firebirds) are the same car with some appearance modifications and that is it.

Everything under the bodywork is the same. The Pontiac may be rated a few horsepower more due to the Ram-Air in the TransAm but it's all the same shit under the hood.

prettier???? If you want a prettier car go and buy a volkswagen bug. If you want a mans car, pick an f-body. Which one just depends on if you like floppy lights or not and for reference the last gen of trans am with the ram air hood in black or sunburnt orange is the best.

I ALMOST don't know how to respond to that....

ARE YOU SERIOUS????? Are you blind or something??? I can see asking if there's any maintenance issue to look out for when looking for one, but to ask which one is more aesthetically pleasing leads me to believe that you're just trolling. I just can't believe you asked that question... I'm looking at it, and STILL can't believe you asked it.


Maintenance free... an F-Body ain't the answer there. There are TONS of posts about this in the F-Body forums, do a little searching.

You want trouble free, good mileage, dependable... go get a foreign econobox.

You want power, poor gas mileage, chronic headaches... and a ton of coolness... go F-Body. They can be a total pain in the ass, but that's part of it...

Re: Camaro Z28 vs. Pontiac Firebird trans am (95-97)

lolz. unless having a chevrolet logo makes it less reliable, they are the same thing. i personally like Trans Ams more than F-bodys. But this all comes down to your opinion. Dont ask us, just decide which one you want and get it

same car, so you cant go wrong.
