Used 1988 Pontiac Firebird

Dressed in an outstanding color scheme that pairs factory correct Flame Red Metallic paint with a signature gold Screaming Chicken hood logo, this 1988 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am GTA represents its model in its strikingly aerodynamic third generation form. That attention grabbing paint combo, contrasted by a set of factory-correct wheels that come by way of its upper tier GTA (Grand Touring American) status really draw you in, and while at very close range you may find some subtle evidence of passing years here and there, make no mistake, this classic is an absolute head turner. Better still, with an unusually low 42,638 miles under its belt, this Firebird is ready and waiting for plenty more asphalt enjoyment. All the outward signs show that this Pontiac has seen consistent sheltering over its lifetime. The interior is in clean shape, with the surfaces of its black vinyl upholstery showing no tearing or noticeable stains and the carpeting still looks fresh and well-fitted. Pontiac got adventurous with its dash configurations when the Trans Am's third generation arrived, and this specimen ably demonstrates that trend. Check out the AM/FM/Cassette stereo at the center of the dash, with its integrated equalizer offering a multitude of knobs to get the interior sound to your liking. Or the assembly of factory gauges in their digital configuration that marked a big change from previous aesthetic norms. The functionality inside these doors has held up well over the years, so the factory air conditioning is blowing strong and cold, and the sound system is still in fine form. More than 35 years after it started attracting attention on the showroom floor, this Firebird continues to run in confidence-inspiring fashion. It's powered by a factory-correct, 350-cubic-inch V8 with tuned port fuel injection that fires up on command and provides solid acceleration. It teams with a 4-speed 700R4 automatic transmission whose responsiveness leads to the conclusion that a shift kit was likely installed sometime in the recent past. Several key mechanical components were recently replaced, so this classic is well-positioned for plenty of future service. Power steering makes this Pontiac easy to maneuver, while power disc brakes at all four corners bring it to prompt, fade resistant stops.
