Depends on a lot?

Generation? Trans Am? Formy?

Almost forty years of F-body.

First Gen

Bandit, Shifts Good

Turbo if that’s your thing

WS6 done up tastefully

Probably a pretty nice base model one, and somewhat of a ratty T/A

A really nice driver quality T/A . Probably an automatic at that price.

Just for you, I’d drop it to $14k

A relatively nicely sorted one along the lines of mine. Really for a super nice show quality Special Edition with original engine, manual trans, and interior and stuff you’ll be looking north of 20k. But for 15k you could easily get a Trans Am with a non original engine auto trans that looks and drives perfectly well. For the best bang/buck look at the 79-81 cars especially those that have had engine swaps (those later year engines were trash).

Could probably get this down to 15k. So much smokey and the bandit here.

Pretty much anything 1974-2002 in decent to excellent shape, with perhaps the exception of the 89 tta and the last anniversary edition.

you could get a good one with T-tops for 15k probably

You gotta have T-tops, that’s like the most important part of those cars!

Something along these lines: https://www.carsforsale.com/vehicle/details/23823591 which I’m not sure is a T/A since that looks like a Formula hood to my non-expert eyes.

You could save some bucks by going for a Camaro instead. I don’t think my running and complete but needing body work and paint ‘71 is worth more that $7k-$8k.
