1980 Pontiac Firebird Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Owners of the 1980 Pontiac Firebird overwhelmingly enjoy the fun and powerful driving experience it offers. Many praise its acceleration, handling, and the overall classic appeal, often highlighting the excitement of driving this car. However, some mention the need for maintenance and occasional repairs due to its age, as well as concerns about fuel consumption. Overall, it's a beloved classic that many plan to keep for years."
THE Best vehicle I've ever driven. Accelerates hard and fast, Brakes fairly well. Handles better than anything I've ever driven. I love the flow of the body lines. By far the best looking car I've ever seen. I've had to repair the motor mounts and replace the carburetor, but what can you expect from a 30 year old car? MPG is awesome since it's a v6, but also is pretty powerful for its age. This car handles amazingly. It's a blast to slam into and put it sideways.
July 29, 2008This car is so much fun to drive. The small-block 231ci engine sounds like the Autopia cars at Disneyland (when they were good). I bought it off an incense-maker so it came sparkly red with velvet interior! One of the last of the classic body styles, her frame is sturdy, making her last a long time. Daily driver with few problems for an older car.
September 7, 2009like the work that needs to be done will be pretty fun to do. so far it works great for the price i paid. i only paid 1500. its a reall fun car to drive and race around in. it has a 6.6 403 big block engine

July 10, 2010305 cubic inch engine. Runs nicely, but has an exhaust leak. Handles like a pig and consumes fuel like one too. Virtually no rust. Has the possibility of being converted to a Trans Am. Not many people can say that they got a Firebird as their first car.
