1985 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am review from North America
"The best car you will ever own"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Stock 2.8 V-6 block cracked.
Computer died.
Goes through tires fast...
Spoiler fell off while driving and busted through a state trooper's windshield, that cost a big chunk of money.
Right side headlight motor broke.
General comments?
VERY fast car. I put a older Firebird 6.0 Heavy Duty engine in it...
Body is very good about not rusting.
Inside if kept clean stays in very good condition.,Don't fall apart.
Any performance you want in it your can put it in.
I have 780 HP motor and MT street legal slicks...
Very cheap for good solid hardcore muscle parts..
