This 1989 Pontiac Trans Am is a prime example of how a classic car can hold more value than a brand-new one.
Discovered recently, this Trans Am is practically a time capsule, having been parked away almost immediately after purchase and accumulating only delivery miles.
The Trans Am, launched in 1969, had a slow start but grew in popularity over the years.
In 1979, the 10th-anniversary edition even reached sales of over 117,000 units. Ten years later, Pontiac celebrated two decades of the Trans Am with another special edition. One such car ended up tucked away, seemingly forgotten for over three decades.
Reveiled with only 1500 units ever produced, a pristine 1989 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 20th Anniversary edition is emerging from its time capsule existence.
This survivor has been tucked away in a garage since it rolled off the lot, accumulating dust but minimal mileage.
While the lack of service means a complete mechanical refresh is necessary, this Trans Am presents a unique opportunity for collectors. The question remains: how much will this automotive relic fetch at auction on August 7th?
