1985 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am review from North America
"A real kick in the ass!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel pump went bad at 140,000 ($250).
Seats are badly worn at the edges.
The stickers on the inside of the taillights are coming off.
Windshield wiper pump is bad.
U-joints went bad.
General comments?
This car is awesome, except for the gas mileage, but what can you expect!
It is a kick in the ass to drive and tear around in.
The T-Tops make it look and feel awesome in the heat of the summer.
