Navy Blue Metallic- 1998 Trans Am WS6
What DID I buy...?
Hey all. I'm at my desk at work and can't run down to check the car, but I wanted to get your guys' take. I bought my '98 WS6 about 3 weeks ago. I was ecstatic because it was a WS6, but now I'm not so sure... For starters, it has two exhaust outlets. I read that '98s only had one. Also, I glossed over my door panel the other day, and did not find WS6 anywhere. The only W I found was on WS9. It has the hood, the "Ram Air" decal, and the WS6 badge. Car is still in great shape, but did I get duped?

WS9 is the code for a formula trans am.
all trans am's are formulas, not all formula's are trans ams

There would be a WS6 code on the sticker. Every option code is on that sticker, and WS6 is just the code for a performance option. Its still a very nice car from what I can see.

You have one regardless. Just open your hood and see how high your airbox is raised.

it is a very nice looking car-i coudlnt believe how red the bird is on the back panel.
functional ram air-that's always been a debate mainly b/c of the drag coefficint. The hood looks cool-no debate there

It looks like a ws6 to me! Check the codes again
The first time I looked for ws6 on my door I couldn't find it. I nearly had a heart attack. But then I looked again and I found it right in the middle of all the codes somewhere.

The wheels. Guess someone went the distance on the cloning.

looks like a ws.6 to me-dont' sweat it man, most factory ws.6s no longer have the "ws.6 parts" on it b/c everyone mods their car
how many miles? that looks exactly like my "batmobile" before i trashed it-check my profile and you'll see
your rims and paint look flawless

Thanks. She's pushing 37,500, I think. Maybe less. I fell in love with it, needless to say...
EDIT: They rims WERE flawless until I almost wrecked last week dodging a discarded semi tire on the highway. It was in between two lanes and I didn't see it til I was already changing. My rear driverside now has one or two nasty little pock marks...

How much? If you don't mind me asking.
Because I just bought my 98 ws6 with 38,000. Is it a manual?

I'm embarassed to say, but I forked over 13,750. It was flawless as far as I was concerned, so I didn't mind. I wonder now, though...
Oh, and it's auto.
It's charcoal grey leather. As far as I know, the car is not modded at all. Bone stock. I have plans, but no funds at the moment. Suggestions are welcome,
