Used 2001 Pontiac Firebird Consumer Reviews
2.5 yrs later I still love this car
I started out leasing this car. I recently bought it because I still love it. I added a flowmaster exhaust, K&N air filter, changed the factory 16" rims to Coddington Shyster 17" rims and put BF Goodrich KDSW tires on it. I run a mix of 2 gal racing 100 fuel mixed with the rest 91 octane. These four improvements have really improved the already excellent performance. Now, I have little tire spinning (even with the tires a little wet), no hesitation or knocking (because of the fuel mix), and with the improved air flow the car is really explosive now. I find the car handles better than most of the reviews I read.

Unbridled power and head turner.
Added a Corsa exhaust, K&N filter, and skip-shift eliminator. Incredibly fast and powerful. Traction control makes it usable in winter weather as well. Appearance, performance, and sound stuns other drivers. A pure pleasure to own.
01 Formula Firebird
I love my car. I never have to worry about being stuck behind a slow driver. Push the gas and go. This car gets geat mileage for a V8, I average 380 per tank. The only downfalls are,is it's too low for my mom to get in and out of easily and there are blindspots from the A posts. I would rather line this car in plastic when I have kids than get rid of it. Best car I've ever owned.
Gotta Love It Baby
This is my third Pontiac Firebird in a row. Yes, that's right. I started with a 1992, 1997 and now a 2001. All gave good performance, were fun to drive, held their value and easy on the wallet. I have only owned the 2001 4 months. The drive shaft and fuel pump failed on the 97. I was costly to repair, but managable, largly because of the dealership..
