i haved owned my car for several years and i plan on keeping this car for a very long time. I realy enjoy my firebird.
Great Styling
And that's about it! At least for the 3.6L V6. It had no power really. Sure, it was 200hp with 225tq, but mine didn't really "get up and go". I test drove a 2000 V8 Trans Am once, and it was fast! Anyway, I liked the flip up headlights and the T-tops. The car also had decent sized tires. The limiter was set to 115mph, but in all reality the car probably couldn't go much faster than that. It was a nice looking car. I also had a 1991 V8 that had 170hp with 255tq that felt just as sluggish. Both cars had an issue with their alternator, so that might be a thing with Firebirds of this era. Also the actuator, headlamp motor, went out on this 1999. It's a nice looking car but recall having some issues here and there with it.

BTA Firebird Review
Really fun car to drive. A real head turner. Interior controls are well laid out. Cup holder could be bigger. Actually can fit two adults in back seat unlike any other sports car. (e.g. Mustang, RX7). Great 10 speaker stereo and lots of after market upgrades if you are into that.
Luv this car!!
I've owned my 99 firebird for the past 3 years and although it isn't the best to drive during the winter months I have to say I look forward to the summer when I can take off the T-tops! This car definately gets one noticed! The only problems I've had with it are a blown alternator and some electrical issues but other than that its been an awesome car all around! Everyone loves it!
