1989 Pontiac Trans Am Turbo Description

Mint Condition 1989 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Turbo, 20th Anniversary Indy Pace Car, 100% all original with 799 miles!
Original owner! This is 1 of only ever 1,555 made.
My father bought the car brand new in Fall 1988 from Ridge Motors in Des Plaines, IL and has stored the car ever since, starting and running the engine frequently and driving on rare occasions just to keep the car fully performing. He recently shipped it to me in CA in an enclosed trailer. Car has been in storage since purchased new (heated stored during winters).
Car is 100% factory condition! Car has been well-maintained and parts replaced as needed when the power antenna and rear hatch latching mechanisms stopped working. It is pristine and like new inside and out.
When released in Fall 1988, this model was issued as a Collector's Item with such limited production (only 1,555 ever made), and was the Indy Pace Car in 1989. The power and performance was designed to be one of the fastest production cars at that time, with a 0-60 in 4.5 secs, and 1/4 times just under 12 secs. It would be an ideal collectable for some people, while being a thoroughbred Hot Rod enjoyed by others.
The car comes with T-Tops and Holders, Pace Car Stickers, and Authentication Certificates in the original box as they have NEVER been put on the car. Please contact me with questions or for more photos.
Here is a video, taken February 4, 2017 when it was a bit cold outside and you could see the exhaust. https://youtu.be/nBzwGhgrAkE
