Pontiac’s Firebird is one desirable car. It was made from 1967 to 2002 across four generations, and many believe GM didn’t have to kill it off. Yet, away it went, and Pontiac as a brand followed eight years later. The Firebird is a legend of the silver screen; the second generation on which this 1981 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Turbo comes from is widely hailed as the era of the Smokey and the Bandit car. This car sports a reportedly original 74,814 miles and is up for grabs.
The iconic design of the second generation was the work of Bill Porter and is very representative of its era. You’ve got curves, muscular flanks, and rounded-off corners to contend with. A wrap-around rear windshield is another iconic feature of the second-generation Firebird, and you’ll notice the similarities with the Camaro of the same era, too. It is no surprise, as the two are cousins. This 1981 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Turbo brings you all those iconic features in a signature shade of black, punctuated by the iconic “Screaming Chicken” motif atop the hood in all its glory. The original Turbo wheels are present in gold and wear new tires. You’ve also got the original T-tops on this car. The interior of this 1981 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Turbo features a four-seat layout with tan upholstery and seat covers for added protection. The dashboard and other trim elements are dark brown, save for a meter cluster surround in a silver metal finish. The climate control panel on this car leads us to believe that it has air conditioning, too. The only thing missing is the radio, but you can easily install one of your choice.
This 1981 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Turbo packs a 4.9L V8 with a single Garrett TB305 turbocharger feeding its Rochester 4-barrel carburetor. The engine made 210 horsepower when new, as per Chevy figures. In this car, it’s paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission and powers the rear wheels. You’ve also got a new exhaust system with Waldron mufflers for that signature muscle car roar.

The fourth generation Pontiac Firebird was released in 1993, but no-one realized that this would, sadly, be the last generation for this iconic pony car. Sporting futuristic styling inspired by the Pontiac Banshee IV concept car, the fourth-generation Trans Am promised great things and managed to deliver on most of those promises. In 1994, Pontiac released a 25th Anniversary special edition that came with features such as white leather seats, white wheels, and a white-painted body with a single blue stripe. Buyers could have this edition in any of the three available body styles. Now, we’ve got one of those cars in desirable T-top form up for sale in Irvington, Alabama. Say Howdy to this 1994 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 25th Anniversary that’s traveled just 21,269 miles in its life so far. The car looks to be in fantastic condition and is ideal for someone who will love it and cherish it, as well as drive it with gusto.
Pontiac’s Firebird was well-known for many reasons. It starred as the hero car in Smokey and the Bandit during its second generation. When it entered the third generation in 1982, the Firebird gained new levels of fame as Knight Rider’s KITT, as well as his evil twin KARR. But did you know that the Firebird has always been the sister car of the Camaro? The answer to Ford’s Mustang, GM introduced the Firebird and Camaro in 1967 to fight in the pony car space. Firebirds were made across four generations until 2002. Today, we’ve got a nice third-generation 1989 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am GTA for sale in West Columbia, Texas. Yes, it’s the ‘Knight Rider’ model, albeit it isn’t black and doesn’t sport a sweeping red scanner bar. However, it is a high performance variant which was really sought after in its heyday. Today, this 159,164-mile car makes for a great practical classic that you can drive and display alike.
Pontiac’s Firebird, widely known as one of the most iconic pony cars ever to grace the silver screen, breathed its last breath by the end of 2002. Yes, Pontiac officially axed the Firebird nameplate after more than three decades of performance heritage, and the brand itself would be shelved by General Motors several years later. Famous for its starring roles in Smokey and the Bandit and Knight Rider, the Firebird remains one of the most recognizable American muscle cars in history. If you’re a Firebird fan, take a close look at this fourth-generation 2000 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am SLP Firehawk, now offered for sale in Carlsbad, New Mexico. With just over 28,000 miles on the odometer, this example stands out not just for its mileage, but for what it represents — a rare, factory-authorized performance upgrade by SLP Engineering (Street Legal Performance).
Fondly known as the Goat, the Pontiac GTO is one of Pontiac’s most hallowed models from the Sixties. It was conceived as a smart way to get around a General Motors management ban on divisions competing in auto racing. Three gentlemen named Bill Collins, John Z DeLorean and Russ Gee found a way round this ban. Why not give customers a car that they can then race when and how they please? Simply focus on street performance with a healthy dose of usability tossed in, then let customers do as they please. With a name inspired by none other than the Ferrari 250 GTO of the 1950s, the Pontiac GTO was born. Today’s 1967 Pontiac GTO is from the first generation and comes with under 70,000 miles on the clock. Hence, it’s a great classic to own and love, as well as drive enthusiastically. It’s also got an interesting gearbox!

Coronet is one of those names from Dodge that the current generation won’t know about, but the previous one definitely will.

Now, we’ve got a nice fifth-generation 1967 Dodge Coronet for sale, from the period when the Coronet was a midsize car.
