16x20 GTA Poster

I happened to stumble upon this, and I thought it interesting since there is so little in regards to 3rd gens. It appears that possibly our cars are getting some more needed publicity.

I think its historical insofar as its a definate swing for our cars.

That poster has been available for some time. I've had mine for a few years now, it's exactly as pictured. Can't recall where I got it from at the moment.

Is it out of focus? I can't tell from the picture, nor looking at my own copy. I do think the attached picture doesn't quite display as well (color wise) as the poster itself, but that could be due to the pc that I'm currently using to view the image while away from home.

Too bad they don't even label it as the correct model on the web page. They simply call it a Trans Am when obviously it is a GTA. However... I am ordering mine anyway.

I have it also. Got it laminated at Kinkos or Office depot...any one of them will do it for a couple of bucks.

I also own the identical car in the photo with 9,000 miles.

Looks like the store is the one mislabeling it. Mine says GTA under the Pontiac Trans Am text (bottom, center). I can see it in the image the store is using as well.

The one pictured and on the website is out of focus, you can see it in the bottom text and the GTA emblem isnt readable but it should be. I'd imagine its just the picture above as the text on the real print probably is pretty clear.

I can buy those posters for $6-8 all day long.

Simply attend any car show or store that sells automotive posters and shirts and not only can u get them cheaper, you can save on shipping and handling.

That poster is at least nearly 10 yrs old or older and there are a few other thirdgen ones also.
