Vehicle Description
2002 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am
In 1992 the Pontiac division of GM changed its decade old theme
line from "We Build Excitement" to "We are Driving Excitement."
This new campaign shifted emphasis from overall branding to
supporting individual models. The common denominator defining
Pontiac as a brand since 1982 is the notion that Pontiac both
symbolized and actualized excitement.
For consignment a chance to put yourself in the seat where you will
be driving excitement! This in the form of a 1 owner 2002 Firebird
Trans Am Collector Edition. A mere 2,391 units were produced (1,396
manual, 995 automatic) and this one is a completely stock and well
maintained vehicle with 27,395 actual miles clocked. A beautiful
coat of collector yellow with ebony trim combination, and I'm
excited!
Exterior
Making use of many a curvaceous surface, this car appears to be
moving when standing still. From its shapely integrated bumper with
fog lights, turn signals and air intakes, it seamlessly moves into
the hood. Up here we are greeted with more air intakes, bulbous
hidden headlights and a dual cowl hood scoop complete with dual
screaming chickens and licking flames heading towards the
windshield in multiple shades of gray. Speaking of the windshield
it has a major swept back rake to it and adds to the Rubensesque
line when viewed from the sides. More air intakes, good gaps and
some sweeping graphics are seen here. The large black B pillar
supports a swept back curved rear window, and this makes its way
under an integrated tail spoiler. More round design on the rear
honeycombed taillights, and another curved integrated bumper and we
have a thing of undulating collector yellow beauty.
Interior
Popping off the smoked glass "T" tops we can venture inside to a
world of more curved surfaces in the form of black leather covered
power bucket seats up front and a dual bucket setup in the rear.
All this leather is in good condition showing slight wear on the
bolster areas. The buckets flank a sweeping forward black console
which houses a large glovebox/armrest and the Hurst shifter. The
undulating dash in black houses the instrument panel, a banging
Delco radio/12-Disc CD player (trunk mounted) with equalizer and 10
Monsoon speakers strategically placed to rock your world. This
radio can be controlled by the steering wheel so you can continue
your cruise while changing the tunes. Nice black carpet covers the
floors.
Drivetrain
With Ram Air and a performance handling package, this healthy mill
can take you down the road at exciting speed. Rated at 350 cubes,
this LS1 with electronic fuel injection, and a T56 6-speed manual
transmission throwing power back to a RPO coded GU6 3.42 posi rear
axle will have you up to speed in no time.
Undercarriage
Save for some usual surface rust on uncoated suspension parts, it
could be considered factory underneath, with great structural
integrity, super clean floor pans, and a straight frame. A low
restriction exhaust, traction control, independent front and torque
arm rear suspension, and power disc brakes all around. I'm now past
excitement nearly to the point of delirium.
Drive-Ability
Turning the key will ignite the candles immediately. This car has
plenty of power, rides very nicely, and has an ergonomically
comfortable interior setup for the driver. A flip of the traction
control switch and you get a whole different ride. Great airflow
without the glass t-top panels installed.
27,000 original miles and well maintained, one cannot go wrong with
this Collector Edition 6-speed beauty. 17" black coated 5 spoke
wheels with high performance tires, plenty of conveniences, and the
removable "T" top and we have produced exhilaration, well beyond
the bounds of excitement!
