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.

Pontiac’s Firebird is one of the most iconic pony cars. Made across four generations between 1967 and 2002, the Firebird was the Camaro’s sister car. The similarities weren’t just visual; they were basically the same under the skin as well. The second-generation Firebird really made a name for itself through its screen presence on Smokey and the Bandit. The car used for the movie was a 1977 Firebird Trans Am, so if you’re a fan of the film, here’s a 1977 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am for sale right now. This car comes with an upgraded engine and upgraded suspension as well. Just don’t try to jump it; many of the movie's stunt cars didn’t survive the experience.
In 2002, after a glorious run across four generations, the Pontiac Firebird was due to be put to pasture. Pontiac’s iconic pony car was saying goodbye to the world, although its Camaro sister car would continue for over two more decades. It was a sad year for enthusiasts, given that the Firebird had become quite cult hero. The second generation starred as Jim Rockford’s car in The Rockford Files. Then, the third generation became Knight Rider’s KITT, one of the most-loved cars of the silver screen. You’d be hard-pressed to find another automotive nameplate with a similar level of recognition by the public due to its Hollywood appearances. So, if you want to own a Firebird from the last year of production, and one with some serious power under the hood, check out this 2002 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6. This 116,000-mile car packs quite a wallop and has undergone handling and braking upgrades too.

The first generation Ford Mustang was a smooth cruiser when it had an in-line six-cylinder engine under the hood. Frugal yet fun motoring was possible in this pioneering pony car.
