What’s new
Trans Am GT debuts. Six-speed transmission is saddled with a first-to-fourth skip shift feature designed to improve fuel economy. Automatic is new electronically controlled unit with the V8 engine, and it features Normal and Performance modes. Remote keyless entry, cassette player and leather-wrapped steering wheel move from the Trans Am standard equipment list to the options sheet. T/A also loses Batwing rear spoiler to GT, taking Formula's more subdued rear treatment. Convertible debuts at midyear. A 25th anniversary Trans Am, done up in white with blue accents, celebrates a quarter-century of Pontiac's performance flagship.

Couldn't buy this car from me.

1994 Pontiac Firebird 2dr Hatchback
This is by far the best and most fun car Ive driven. I've added K&N air intake and flowmaster exhaust, tinted the windows extremely dark, and added chrome rims and performance tires. Just added a top notch sound system, replaced everything, and I couldn't be happier with the car. It may have a TMV of $2300, or whatever, but there is no way I'd sell it for triple that. I would drive this … car every mile for the rest of my life if I could, unfortunately there is no car that lasts that long.

1994 Pontiac Firebird Formula 2dr Hatchback
be careful of this car. i had a blown
moter at 70000 miles. it was nothing i
did to it, it was a mechanical defect.
it is the most expensive car i've ever
had to fix. a distributer cap on other
cares cost between 10 or 20 dollars,
on this car it costs over 300, and you
have to take the water pump off to
change it. would not recommend car,
for the amount of money you … will spend
in repairs, you could own a lexus

1994 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 2dr Hatchback
We bought our 94 in may of 05,its fast and alot of fun,but it broke down in july o5 and was very expensive to fix,the distributor cap and rotor are behind the waterpump and unless your a mechanic you need one to fix it. Other than that we love it and looking for lots of fun to come its a very fun car to drive whoa pony!Fast fast fast.
