If I'm reading about the right one:

Officially it's the Burt Reynolds Edition Trans Am built by Year One, the restoration parts company based in Georgia. And officially it's one of a limited production run that could be up to 50 cars — if, that is, there are 50 people willing to pay for a ripped version of the '78 Trans Am. Year One has supplied parts for The Fast and The Furious series since the second installment, so it's no surprise to see that relationship continue into the fourth film.

But it's what's underneath the exaggerated and iconic appearance that gives the car substance. The chassis is thoroughly updated with tubular A-arms on the front suspension, oversize Baer Racing brakes all around and a 550-horsepower, 7.0-liter GM LS-7 crate motor under the hood. That's right, it's Corvette Z06 powered.
