Just sat ere watching Smokey and the Bandit 2, and i've noticed The Bandit's Trans Am has Turbo written on the back. Does anyone know any details of the said car? I thought Yank mobiles were all about cubic capacity and cylinders back in them days.

I've had a look about and found the none too impressive spec.

4.9L Turbo
200 bhp @ 3600rpm
340Lb/Ft @ 2000rpm

Brun, i've set my sights for one of these for September.(you can get one fo 1500-2500.My father used to have a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Formula Bullnose(yeah that's the full name ) Loads of white leather, huge wheels, s*itloads of torque but the car had titanic consumption. He was switching off the engine at the traffic lights to save fuel
The car was like the one that was used in the movie american beauty(red in the film), where Kevin Spacey sold his toyota and got the pontiac, only in metallic blue with black hardtop. I was young at the time and i still remember how people used to look at us.
