does anyone have one of these cars on order? its expensive but the look and the performance is outstanding. i believe its every bit as good if not better than all those new gt500 eleanor recreations running around.

The Ban III includes a 515-horse dry-sump LS7 7.0 liter engine, and upgrades include a 605-horse dry-sump LS7, or a monster 8.8 liter (540-inch) Pontiac V8 making over 650 horsepower. A 5-speed manual is the only transmission offered on the Ban III. Suspension consists of the Ban II’s tubular front subframe, rack-and-pinion steering, and four-link rear with adjustable coil-overs on each corner. Chassis reinforcements include integrated subframe connectors and a four-point roll bar with safety harnesses. Brakes are huge Baer Racing 6-piston calipers with 14-inch two-piece rotors front and rear. The Ban III offers a level of performance rarely seen in a street-legal vehicle, and is designed specifically for experienced drivers.

P.S. that car sex on wheels.....

 

I saw the special on that...and I agree HOT CAR. I kinda like this better than Eleanor...I wish I could afford one. Sweet car. As a kid that firebird logo just stuck to me.

 

Saw the Hot Rod magazine feature on the new Year One Bandits and I think this is gonna be one hell of a ride in it's top form. LS7 powered BAN III = TMFW

 

Thing is siiick. Love the big snowflake wheels.

 

saw this car in sema........ wow it really caught my eye over alot others around it ..super nice..

 

Yep, saw it at SEMA too, was A LOT better in person then I ever expected!

 

My all time favorite muscle car! Sweet!

 

The Screaming Chicken lives again!

 

The muscle car lives!!! East bound and down!!! If it wasn't $100,000 i'd be all on it. The 18 inch snow flakes are the best part. Year One is going to sell all the new parts off the new badit TA's, so i just might be building one, seeing that i already have a ls6 and t-56 sitting in the garage. Punch that bad boy out and i'd have 2 TA's that are a force to be recond with

 

East bound and down!!! I like it.

 

So help me, I want one of these.

Damnit.

 

absolutely sick...

 

Simply one of the nicest cars every made in my opinion.
