For Sale: 1999 Pontiac Firebird in Morgantown, Pennsylvania

Vehicle Description

1999 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Coupe

By 1953, the research team had produced the Firebird XP-21, later referred to as the Firebird I, which was essentially a jet airplane on wheels. It was the first gas turbine-powered car tested in the United States. The design is entirely impractical, with a bubble-topped canopy over a single-seat cockpit, a bullet-shaped fuselage made entirely of fiberglass, short wings, and a vertical tail fin. A small version adorns the top of the Harley Earl Trophy given each year to the winner of the Daytona 500

This rounded off version of the iconic Firebird Trans Am right out of 1999 remains in very nice condition, never having always been garage kept and sporting a mere 18,957 actual miles. It is a one owner car that has recently had the AC serviced, the knock sensors replaced, and the cooling system was just flushed.

Exterior
Deep dark factory applied Black base coat and clear coat adorn the straight panels of this car. Virtually no chrome is present and all composite bumpers and front and rear parts come together to form this aerodynamic Trans Am version. The lines of this car blend seamlessly to form the final shape, all smooth and aerodynamic. A few very minor faults on the bottom edge of the driver's door and touch ups on the rocker fairings, but one must look hard to notice them. A T-top roof with removable smoked glass panels leads back to the rear greenhouse glass that sweeps down the hatch to meet the pedestal mount spoiler that wraps its thin edges around the base of the glass. Chrome finished and nicely polished chrome factory wheels in 16-inch format are wrapped by like new 245/50R16's on all 4 corners.

Interior
Charcoal gray bliss awaits us with a swing of the door. This hue mixes together in the door panels with their molded armrests and speaker surrounds in varying shades of charcoal gray along with some perforated vinyl for the inserts...sexy! Inside, high back leather covered buckets for the front and a 2 plus 2 bench in back, offer up comfy seating for 4. In the center a charcoal gray console races toward the dash, housing a glovebox, cup holders and the leather wrapped shifter on the way. As we rise upward, sculpted lines abound where temp wheels and a killer AM/FM/CD player with a built in eq are factory installed. Above are 3 eyeball vents to funnel air anywhere you want. A semicircular arch is in front of the steering wheel and underneath its padded visor we see 2 in trisecting circular gauges and a lineup of V shapes just below to convey all the vocals to the driver. Above is a black liner that is looking just terrific highlighting the T-roof option.

Drivetrain
A 5.7 liter LS1 V8 which puts out 305hp is under the hood. This sits in a super clean and shiny environment with little to no corrosion and presents all in unmolested factory format. This mill is electronically fuel injected and has a Tremec T56 6-speed manual transmission and a 10 bolt 3.23 Positraction equipped rear axle.

Undercarriage
Some light surface rust on the usual suspects, but floor pans and rockers as well as most of the underside is a nice original painted steel with a dusting of the factory black showing. Independent coil spring suspension for the front, and torque arm with coil springs for the rear. Power disc brakes are all around and single exhaust feeds to the OEM muffler with dual outlet tailpipes.

Drive-Ability
A quick starter, smooth driver and some nice power. Overall, a good low milage car with blistering acceleration, surefooted handling and bias free braking. Oh and did I mention the sweet note from the exhaust? Well now I did. A fully functional skate that easily handled our test track, but with the drive kept short to prevent racking up excess miles.

Right out of 1999, this single owner black bird is ready to have its key turned and driven away for more fun. It's your turn in this Firebird Trans Am to be lighting the tires up.
