"2001 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Convertible
2010 marked the final year for the Pontiac Motor Division at GM and eight years earlier, the last Trans Am rolled off the assembly line, much to the chagrin of Firebird loyalists throughout North America. But the car that came in like a lion, left like a lion harboring 325 horsepower under the hood with the LS series V8. In 2001, more than 20,000 Firebirds were built.
For consignment, a 2001 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am convertible with a title verified 77,402 actual miles. According to our consignor, the car spent most of its life out west and has a newer top, door panels, and seat covers.
Exterior
There's no hiding the aggressive front end of this car, no matter what color paint adorns it, but Navy Blue Metallic is a great choice. It is one of the great faces, with inset marker lights molded into the corners, fog lights deep within two tunnels, and then the intake set up of twin scoops to capture all of the air the moving car can inhale. What air it misses, rides over a smooth hood, finding its way to a steeply raked windshield where it continues over the dark blue canvas top and along the ironing board-like rear wing. The aggressive face gives way to a more rounded tail with curved plexiglass that covers the red lenses, black hexagons creating a contrast with the blue bumper cover and a rear valance that provides two tunnels for the exhaust, in this case, oval tips. 17-inch chrome wheels carry 40 series tires with a mid 2023 date code. Imperfections include general overall dullness to the paint, failing clear coat and oxidized surfaces, chips, scuffs, crazing, curb rash, heavy chin scrapes and some damage, and areas of orange peel.
Interior
Standard Ebony door panels with textured plastic and gray buttons show some minor wear but are overall good. Black leather bucket seats are sports car focused and have prominent side bolsters and the accordion style flex zone used in Trans Ams since the late 1980's, and both seats plus the rear 2+2 seats look great. We do note the front seat belt guides are gone. The beefy black steering wheel is sculpted for good grip and houses gray buttons for radio control. A standard dash continues the monochromatic interior, and the center stack features large, gray plastic buttons and knobs for radio and climate controls while a leather handled shifter is in the center console. Picking up the dash pad cover reveals cracks, wear, and panel separation underneath. Low pile charcoal carpet is in good shape and the rear cargo area is lined with gray cloth panels and has a deep well for gym bag and grocery storage. It also holds a 12 disc changer.
Drivetrain
Under the hood and set back to the firewall is the potent 5.7 liter LS1 V8 rated at a healthy 310 horsepower and set into motion here by a T56 6-speed manual transmission. Power is routed to the 10 bolt axle with 3.42 gears and Positraction. The bay presents cleanly.
Undercarriage
Driver quality here with typical surface rust on heavy metal components while dry conditions prevail. Dual exhaust starts at headers which come together and the single pipe finds a FlowMaster muffler which emits two tailpipes. Suspension onboard includes coil springs up front and coil springs with a torque arm in the back. We're in the modern age with this performance car, so power disc brakes are the only option to slow this bird down, and they're at all four wheels.
Drive-Ability
What has all the fun of a Corvette with two extra seats? A Trans Am, of course! The V8 starts right up, and we head out onto the tarmac where the T/A does what T/A's do, handle well, go fast, and turn on a dime. We are running with a check engine light and codes are in the photographs. We also note the steering column is loose, the driver's power seat and power mirror are not working, and the front turn signals are inoperable. All other functions operate as they should on this convertible bird. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
Sammy Hagar knew what he was talking about when he wrote, ""Trans Am, highway wonderland!"" Here's one that could use some TLC but also comes to you with fresh tires, a very nice top and a clean engine bay. Future collectible? How about collectible right now Like Sammy sings, ""Right now, catch that magic moment, do it right here and now!""
