After a long search... I FINNALY got it!!
While growing up in the 80's and living near a Pontiac dealer, I always wanted one and after more than a year of searching I finnaly got one!! 
1987 Pontiac Trans Am GTA
5.7 Liters - 350 cc
94,000 original miles
All original and unmolested.
It has been VERY hard to find a clean and untouched GTA without paying alot of $. To many this is a POS, but for me it is one BAD A$$ GTA!!! And yes I am ready for the Knight Rider jokes...

Not at all. I like it. Nice, clean, and straight. Nice car. Whatever the car, its always more special if its something you've lusted after and eventually get.

Man, i love those cars!!
that thing is in great condition! The GTA was so slick looking.
I had a 92 z28 briefly w/the 350. My brother destroyed it. It was a monster. I miss that car.

Red KITT lights FTWAnd... I highly doubt you have to worry about ANYONE calling that beautiful GTA a POS. Mostly all of us wanted one at one point in time or another. Personally, I'd love to own one and I wish you the best of luck with it! It looks like it's in great shape, especially for the age.

PLEASE don't do this...30 years from now when collectors are looking for a nice GTA, all that will be left are kitt conversions and no one will care one bit about the knight rider TV show anymore. Keep it stock...carry the torch

140,000 miles young
I lusted after those things for years - still do when I see a nice one, too bad so many are in the hands of careless bastards who beat em to death. Real badass car.
Toss an exhaust on there and it'll sound real mean, with an extra helping of mean.

+1 on keeping stock. Nothing more than an exhaust system and an LS1 if you really have to. Otherwise, a classic in rare form will be hard to find in the days ahead.

Beautiful! I agree, keep it stock.... I loved Knight Rider but KITT conversions are cool for a few minutes but after than they're just lame.
