General Motors released the 1999 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6 as part of a series built for model years 1998 to 2002. GM marked the end of the Firebird model with this special series and limited production to 2,000 vehicles

1999 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6 came with a 16-valve V-8 engine with Ram Air induction. This engine measured at 5.7 liters and 347 cubic inches. Horsepower measured at 320 at 5,200 rpm. Engine displacement measured at 5,665 cc.

This model clocks an estimated top speed of 165 miles per hour. Racing enthusiasts note that the car can go from zero to 60 miles per hour in 5.2 seconds with the manual transmission, and in 6.0 seconds with the automatic transmission. The zero-to-60 braking distance is 120 feet. EPA fuel economy for city driving originally measured 18 to 19 miles per gallon and 26 to 28 miles per gallon for highway driving.
The all-aluminum LS1 powerplant replaced the iron block LT1. Horsepower increased from 285 to 305 standard and from 305 to 320 for Ram Air Formulas and Trans Ams. Part of the Gen III family of engines, the LS1 was a brand new design that was developed with GM's sophisticated computer-modeling software.

It is comprised of a deep-skirt aluminum block with 6-bolt, cross-bolted main caps. Cast-in-place iron cylinder liners feature a bore of 3.90 inches and employ a cast nodular iron crank with undercut and rolled fillets and a stroke of 3.62 inches. The resulting displacement is 346 ci or 5.7 liters. Attached to the crank are powdered metal 6.1-inch connecting rods. The pistons are hypereutectic-cast aluminum flat-tops.

Few cars I've ever driven have gotten more attention. It has all of the raw American muscle power of a regular WS6 Firebird, Yes, the LS1 in the Trans Am and Camaro Z28 is identical to that of the C5 Corvette. GM released a special WS6 to mark the end of the Firebird, limited to 2000 cars. Equipped with Chevy's LS1 V8 and Ram Air system, the WS6 engine's power rating was bumped up from 320 hp to 325 hp in 2001. The Trans Am WS6 is a high performance muscle car.The 5.7L LS1 is leading-edge technology to tradition of the GM small-block V8,

A Pontiac Trans Am WS6 is a regular Trans Am with a performance package added. This vehicle was released in 1978. The performance package included an upgraded suspension. On later vehicles it also included a larger diameter sway bar, upgraded steering box, and upgraded tires and rims.  The basic shape of the Trans Am is more than a little aggressive, with bulging fenders, a front fascia with large foglamps and a hidden intake.

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll

Tue, 25 Feb 2014



588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
Driving Notes

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
