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.
Exterior and Interior
This 1989 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am GTA wears a white suit and sports gold alloy wheels. These 16-inch flat-mesh diamond spoke wheels were a GTA exclusive. Then, we’ve got those pop-up headlamps which are in their own right, a great reason to buy this car. Of course, there’s GTA badging too, informing everyone that this is a performance variant, if the rear spoiler and overall sporty stance doesn’t do the trick. You’ve also got removable T-tops so that you can enjoy an open-air experience at will. The interior of this 1989 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am GTA features shades of gray and seats up to four adults. It’s really well equipped for this era. The most notable feature has got to be the multifunction steering wheel with its prominent buttons for controlling the radio unit that sits in the center console. The unit itself is impressive as well, a Delco one with a cassette tape player and even a five-band graphic equalizer with good old sliders! Above it lies the control panel for the car’s climate control system which includes air conditioning. Yes, this is quite a high-specification car for its time, and even now, it’s got pretty much everything you’d want. There’s also an ample area for cargo beneath the large glass liftback.
Engine
Packing a 350ci V8 with tuned port injection, this 1989 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am GTA reintroduced some of the mojo that was lost from cars during the Malaise Era. Paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, it’s a pleasing car to cruise along in. However, with the special WS6 Performance Suspension Package, this car can also deliver some driving thrills at a race track.
This 1968 Pontiac Firebird Convertible Pro Street is a full-on blown street machine that takes first-generation Firebird styling and turns the aggression up considerably. Showing approximately 53,397 miles, this example is powered by a seller-reported 389ci supercharged V8 based on a Pontiac 350 block, topped by a 6-71 Roots-type blower and dual Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors. Power is sent through a TH400 3-speed automatic to a 12-bolt rear end with 3.73 gearing and Positraction. Finished in Blue with custom flame graphics over a Black interior and topped with a white convertible soft top, this Firebird combines classic open-air muscle with unmistakable Pro Street attitude.
This 1980 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Restomod takes the unmistakable attitude of the second-generation Trans Am and backs it with a substantially upgraded Pontiac powerplant. Showing approximately 60,026 total miles, this example is powered by a 461ci Pontiac stroker V8 with only about 1,200 miles on the current engine, paired with a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission. Holley Sniper 2 electronic fuel injection, aluminum cylinder heads, an aluminum intake manifold, and a functional shaker hood scoop give the drivetrain a serious enthusiast-focused character while preserving the visual identity that made the Trans Am such an icon. Finished in Blue over a Blue interior and accented by traditional Trans Am graphics and badging, this build blends late-1970s muscle-car presence with a far more capable modernized engine combination.
The 1997 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Convertible represents the final era of Pontiac’s legendary fourth-generation F-body platform, combining classic American V8 performance with open-air cruising capability. This example has traveled 103,930 miles and is finished in Bright Silver with a Dark Pewter interior and Black convertible soft top. Equipped with the desirable WS6 Ram Air Performance Package, this Trans Am benefits from the iconic functional Ram Air induction system, high-performance upgrades, and aggressive styling cues that helped define the performance image of Pontiac’s flagship sports car. With its LT1 V8, rear-wheel-drive layout, and limited-production convertible configuration, this Trans Am remains an enthusiast-focused piece of Pontiac performance history.
The 2009 Pontiac G8 GT Sedan is one of the more memorable performance sedans from Pontiac’s final years, combining understated four-door styling with the kind of rear-wheel-drive V8 layout enthusiasts still seek today. Showing approximately 50,459 miles, this example is finished in Liquid Red over an Onyx/Red leather interior and is equipped with both the Premium Package and Sport Package. Its 6.0L naturally aspirated V8, 6-speed automatic transmission, 19-inch machine-faced wheels, and performance-oriented interior details give it a strong blend of everyday usability and muscle-car character.
The 2009 Pontiac Solstice Coupe is one of the more distinctive enthusiast cars to emerge from Pontiac’s final years, combining the compact proportions of the Solstice roadster with a fixed-roof coupe body and removable targa-style roof panel. Showing approximately 67,000 miles, this example is finished in Victory Red over an Ebony interior with two-tone red and black seating. Its naturally aspirated 2.4L Ecotec four-cylinder engine is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive, giving it the simple, lightweight sports-car formula that made the Solstice appealing when new. The coupe body style is also far less common than the roadster, adding an extra layer of interest for collectors and Pontiac enthusiasts.
This 1968 Pontiac Firebird Convertible Pro Street is a full-on blown street machine that takes first-generation Firebird styling and turns the aggression up considerably. Showing approximately 53,397 miles, this example is powered by a seller-reported 389ci supercharged V8 based on a Pontiac 350 block, topped by a 6-71 Roots-type blower and dual Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors. Power is sent through a TH400 3-speed automatic to a 12-bolt rear end with 3.73 gearing and Positraction. Finished in Blue with custom flame graphics over a Black interior and topped with a white convertible soft top, this Firebird combines classic open-air muscle with unmistakable Pro Street attitude.
With just 1,025 miles showing, this 1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 is an extraordinary low-mileage example of one of the most important American performance cars of its era. The first-year ZR-1 paired the C4 Corvette’s unmistakable shape with the sophisticated 5.7-liter LT5 DOHC 32-valve V8, a ZF 6-speed manual transmission, and unique wide-body hardware developed to handle its increased performance. Finished in Black over a Black leather interior, this example retains hallmark ZR-1 equipment including the dual-mode engine power system with its Full-Power key, Selective Ride Control, staggered 17-inch directional aluminum wheels, and removable targa roof panel. The approximately 1,025 miles displayed are the defining feature here, making this a particularly compelling example for the collector or enthusiast seeking a first-year ZR-1 with remarkably limited indicated use.
The 1992 Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo represents one of the most ambitious Japanese-American performance collaborations of the early 1990s, combining dramatic grand-touring styling with a sophisticated twin-turbocharged powertrain and an unusually advanced collection of chassis technology for its era. This example shows approximately 31,533 miles and is finished in Mistic Blue Metallic over a Black interior. Beyond its 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 and Getrag 5-speed manual transmission, the R/T Turbo specification brings period performance features such as active aerodynamics, electronically controlled suspension, four-wheel power disc brakes with ABS, and pop-up headlights. With relatively low indicated mileage and unmistakably early-'90s styling, this Stealth delivers the technology-heavy character that made the flagship R/T Turbo such a distinctive performance car.
The 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray represents one of the most memorable years of the C3 era, and this convertible brings together several of the ingredients enthusiasts look for in a classic Corvette. Showing approximately 2,999 miles on the odometer, it pairs Daytona Yellow paintwork with a black interior, both a convertible soft top and removable hardtop, and the unmistakable presence of a 427ci big-block V8. A 4-speed manual transmission, triple 2-barrel carburetors, side exhaust, heavy-duty clutch, and power-assisted steering and brakes give this example a particularly appealing specification. The current owner also reports that the engine build has been refreshed.
