Facts about the model
The Pontiac Firebird Trans Am GTA (Gran Turismo Americano) was introduced in 1987 as the most exclusive and performance-oriented model in the Firebird lineup. With its sleek monochromatic styling, distinctive “shark nose” front end, and aerodynamic bodywork, Pontiac aimed to offer an American alternative to European sports cars such as Porsche and Lotus.
Most GTA models were equipped with a 5.7-liter V8 engine featuring Tuned Port Injection, producing 240 horsepower and 460 Nm (339 lb-ft) of torque, paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission. The WS6 suspension package and gold-painted 16-inch alloy wheels contributed to excellent handling and a sporty appearance.
Inside, the GTA offered a high level of comfort and advanced technology for its era, including leather sport seats, adjustable lumbar support, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, and, on some models, a fully digital instrument cluster.
Today, the Trans Am GTA is a highly sought-after collector car. Well-preserved, original examples are becoming increasingly rare, and their value has risen steadily among enthusiasts.
