2001 Pontiac Firebird Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, drivers of the 2001 Pontiac Firebird appreciate its fun driving experience, sharp handling, and powerful performance options. They particularly love the sporty look and feel, especially with the convertible feature. However, some drivers mention issues such as the need for maintenance on parts like the Body Control Module and electrical issues with lights, which can be a hassle. Despite these concerns, many express a strong loyalty to the car and enjoy their ownership experience."
This is my 2001 Pontiac Firebird Formula. The car is basically stock, it has a SLP cold air induction system and a Pro 5.0 short shifter. This car is my daily driver and has been incredibly reliable since new.
June 15, 2008nice looking car !! great handling very affordable in the US great mileage especially on the highway (25mpg) this is a very fun car to drive ! a little low though, especially on the bumps small in the back seats overall: great car !!
September 7, 2009Great car had it for almost 3 years now and the only thing that is a flaw is the light rearend, but that can be fixed with a rear-mounted turbo! Great to drive and only about 17k with low miles! Tint on black is sexy so everyone knows by the way! Adding cross-drilled rotors and performance brakes would be first to do though because then you can stop the beast whenever you need(a.k.a. 5-0).

July 21, 2008Great sportscar for the sportscar fan that wants a strong car, but not something that is too strong. Wineberry in color, with a black convertible top, ash cloth interior, 3.8 ltr V6 5 spd automatic, sports pedals, tinted windows (side & rear), tinted eyebrow across windshield, since disc JBL audio system, buckets seats...took corners the way a sportscar is supposed to!! It was alot of fun to own. I was sad to see Her go.
January 7, 2008Its a nice powerful car with amazing looks. Gm did a awesone job at making the 4th f bodys. Its a true mustang killer! With over 300hp stock and very little to be done to make it to 400hp. ls1 was touched by the hand of god.
February 7, 2012This is my daily driver firebird. It took me two years to find the perfect firebird and I went with this. It is a 2001 Pontiac Firebird with the sunset orange metallic paint, black leather, t-tops, monsoon sound system, and the Y87 performance package. Bought it with 44k miles in June 2008. I love these cars, if I had the money, I would buy another and keep both of em lol. My bird looks great, but performance is ok, it is a v6 tho. The build quality is ok, it has too much plastic in the inside and out, but what new car doesn't right. Great gas mileage for a sports car. Really fun to drive. Can be a hassle in the winter tho obviously. Let me kno if you have any questions or wanna talk cars---
November 13, 2009I have owned a car like this for over 2 years and it has been an extremely reliable vehicle around town and on long distance road trips. It has never broken down on me or left me stranded. Personally, I enjoy the style. Mine is pewter with black leather interior, bottom molding all around and T-tops. The only problem that it had was one headlight had electrical issues and had to be replaced and my driver's power window occasionally stops working.
February 27, 2008Thundering on the straights! all over the place in corners and just at home on burnouts!
January 17, 2008First off this thing is the sexiest thing for the money. I love how it looks and with the T-top its a babe magnet and even 70 year old women agree with me. The car also preforms well, it handles really well I just wish it had more power to go with its capable chassis.
January 9, 2009fun but wish it was trans-am which = V8
