The 1992 Pontiac Firebird turns heads and is fun to drive. I've owned my car for 10 years and have not encountered any major problems. Although a V-6, it performs like a cheetah on the open road. I've gotten it up to 115 mph before I had to shut it down. I only use synthetic 5-30W, which improves performance and gas mileage (a proven fact).

This is a fun car! I had some trouble with electrical but the engine just keeps on running. I have 268,000 and it's like the Duracell Bunny. I look to have it for many years.
Reliable Fun, and Headturning

I bought this car for $900 roughly a few months after I turned 18, and received my licence. It's a great car, the engine and transmission are responsive. With dual exhaust my car prrrs with out being overly loud. Steering and corning are responsive and great. The stock honeycomb rims are stylish, and have a nice flare with the Firebird symbol in the center cap. My car is a little beat up, and is in rough condition right now, but It turns heads, I get compliments, and it seems like everyone wants to race me.

When i bought my 1992 firebird about three years ago, i had the idea to swap out the 3.1 l v6 till i learned how well the engine performed in the car. The car is defenitly worth the money. I never had to put a part in it besides tires and it starts no matter where or how cold it is outside. It is the most fun car i have ever driven, nd i have driven everything from corvettes to tuners. And my t-tops never leaked either

I've owned two '92 Pontiac Firebirds; both with the V8 305ci engine w/auto trans. Both were very cherry. I just sold the second one this year after having it for 9 years. It was teal (only available on the 92's in the 3rd gen), and had 39k when I bought it in 2004. I had shorty headers put on, free flowing exhaust, K&N filter, & a Tornado. It was a "sleeper". This was a well built car, with decent performance, and you could do the majority of your own maintenance. I never had any major issues with the car, and had no issues driving in the snow or rain. It was still a head turner at 20 years old; received plenty of compliments. I highly recommend this car!

i purchased this car from my father in 2002 and have been pleased with it ever since. this car is very reliable with just normal parts replacement (battery,tires etc). this has to be the funnest car i have ever had and the power and performance are great. this car will stay in the family and i hope it will be enjoyed by my son as much as my father and i have enjoyed it.

My Second firebird, decent power for a 305. Body style is a real eye catcher. Engine is durable and reliable, drivetrain is solid and the construction seems strong. FBody has been plagued with annoying squeeks for years. GM never did manage to work out all of those bugs. Wet traction is not the best. But the car manages the look and feel it was designed to produce.
FABULOUS, FUN & SHARP LOOKING CAR

I bought my first 1992 Firebird in 1994, it was my only vehicle. I always felt so stylish and safe in that car. The way it hugged the road and turned on a dime, the exhaust even made it sound like a muscle car. I was in love! It was a V8, T-tops, teal with white & hot pinks graphics.....Gorgeous! I sold it in 2002 and have regretted it ever since. To my fortune, in luck and money, I found another one with very low miles in fabulous condition inside and out. I will NEVER let this one go! I'm in love once again! Thank You Pontiac!

Although I only have had this car for 2 years I love it..... Very minor repairs (alternator, battery, belts) over 2 years have been my only costs. It had 77,xxx miles when I bought it and now has about 97,xxx. It gets great gas mileage for a v6 3.1 (about 25 in town, 27 highway). I have the t- tops which are awesome in the spring and summer. The design of this car is a classic. My 3.1 v6 will can race most cars off the line which is nice.
