1986 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am review from North America
"A cheap reminder of the muscle car era"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Paint is shot.
Seats are trashed.
Bad exHaust manifold.
These are all the previous owners fault.
General comments?
This car will out perform anything
on the street for the money.
It is just as much fun as any big block or stroker i've drove!
But you must keep in mind this is
a crate engine and a juiced up
drive train.
And yes it deep fry's tires!
