The third generation Firebird will always be remembered as the car that was used as the base of KITT in Glen A Larson’s hit TV series Knight Rider. Sadly, the show ended after the fourth season in 1986, so why not celebrate its memory with this 1986 Pontiac Firebird WS6? True, it’s not in the same color as KITT, but that’s alright because it’s a WS6 edition with just 18,000 miles since new. Third generation Firebirds in such clean and stock form are becoming increasingly rare to find, as they tend to be the subject of various conversions, making this car highly collectible for a discerning enthusiast to own, covet, and of course, drive.
Check out the crisp lines of the third-generation Firebird that debuted in 1982 and ran for ten years, and it doesn’t matter that this car isn’t black, with a custom bumper and bowling-ball hubcaps. Instead, this 1986 Pontiac Firebird WS6 wears a Metallic Red paintwork with matte black rear spoiler with twin hood scoops, the obligatory pop-up headlamps, and the desirable T-top configuration. Factory alloy wheels in silver and black complete the outlook, and there are Firebird, Trans Am and ‘Screaming Chicken’ motifs in strategic places. The red and gray interior on this 1986 Pontiac Firebird WS6 looks excellent, as you’d expect from such a low-miler. You’ve got factory air conditioning, cruise control, premium sound system with auto reverse tape deck and five-band equalizer, power windows, power door locks, and classic Eighties plush seating for four occupants, and there’s luggage space beneath the glass rear window.
The third generation Firebird entered the market at a time when engines were severely restricted by draconian emissions regulations, hence outputs were at all-time lows. However, by 1985, things were looking up again, which is why this 1986 Pontiac Firebird WS6, with its 305ci (5.0L) Tuned Port Injection (TPI) V8 puts out 210hp. Power steering and power disc brakes are on hand, as well as the WS6 Handling Package which makes this a muscle car that can cut it in the corners too.
