1980 Pontiac Trans Am Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Edition
Few cars capture the attitude of Pontiac’s performance era quite like this 1980 Trans Am Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Edition. Finished in unmistakable Cameo White with its signature Indy 500 graphics, this highly original Trans Am was created to celebrate Pontiac’s selection as the Official Pace Car of the 1980 Indianapolis 500—and more than four decades later, it still has the presence to make any Pontiac enthusiast stop and take notice.
Under the bulged hood sits Pontiac’s turbocharged 4.9L V8 backed by a TH350 automatic transmission. The hood-mounted turbo indicator lights remind you that this isn’t an ordinary Trans Am, while 4-wheel disc brakes complete the performance-focused package.
Slide behind the wheel and the Pace Car identity continues. The distinctive Oyster interior features gray “Hobnail” inserts unique to the Indy 500 edition, surrounding the driver with one of the most recognizable interiors of the era. From behind the wheel, looking across that long hood and signature graphics, there’s no mistaking that you’re sitting in something special.
Factory turbine wheels wrapped in Goodyear Eagle GT II tires, the rear spoiler, Pace Car-specific trim, and unmistakable Trans Am bodywork complete a look that could only have come from Pontiac at the height of the Firebird’s popularity.
With approximately 5,700 Pace Car replicas produced for public sale, this special-edition Trans Am combines limited production, Indianapolis 500 heritage, and the originality collectors continue to seek.
If you’ve been looking for a Trans Am with more than just great looks, this Pace Car Edition gives you the history, exclusivity, and originality to make it a special addition to any collection. Imagine opening your garage to those unmistakable Indy graphics, sliding into the Oyster interior, and taking out a car that instantly starts conversations wherever it goes. Come experience this Trans Am in person and see why it deserves to be the next car in your collection.
