What the photos show
- A black-and-gold 'Bandit' Trans Am taken full restomod: paint deep and flawless, gold hood bird and lettering crisp, and it sits over gold mesh-style wheels with modern rubber.
- Engine bay shows a supercharged LS with a big silver blower and polished intake in a tidy black bay (the overlay's LS3-plus-LS9-supercharger recipe is seller text; the forced-induction hardware is visibly there).
- Interior is a full custom black cabin with gold diamond stitching on seats and door cards, a carbon-look dash with aftermarket gauges — the odometer in the cluster photo reads 00827, so barely 800 miles showing.
- Underside can't be judged — it doesn't appear in the 16 viewed; the claimed coilover suspension can't be verified from these photos.
Money: at $204,675 this is the most expensive way into a second-gen Trans Am that isn't a museum original — the build justifies serious money, and the receipts (engine, blower, suspension, gearbox) decide how close it gets to the ask.
