This is a 1998 Pontiac Firebird with a 3.8 liter V6 and 5-speed manual transmission. This is the very popular GM engine referred to as the "IRON DUKE". It's a 231 cubic inch V6 that is synonymous with reliability and longevity. It gets the fuel economy of a 6 cylinder, (26 mpg) and the performance of a small V8 (260 HP). The car handles well and is lots of fun to drive. All repairs done to this car since I've owned it were performed by a GM certified mechanic with GM parts. This includes new clutch and pressure plate, new oil pan gasket, valve cover gaskets,and water pump. The tires are P245/50-16 Mastercraft Avengers with the V-groove performance tread pattern and are like brand new with less than 5,000 miles. The hood is a true Pontiac Ram-Air hood from a WS-6 Trans AM as well as the rear deck lid/spoiler. these parts were professionally painted by a high reputed shop and the color match and clear-coat is a perfect match to the rest of the car. The overall condition of the body is very good with minor scuffs, scratches, and a couple small dings that are normal occurrence with a car that is 15 years old. The car has no rust and no paint peeling, chipping or cracking. It is kept garaged and covered when not driven. The interior is also very good condition. No cracks in dash, door panels, or any other plastic/vinyl parts. Seats and carpet are very nice and free of rips, tears, and burn holes. This car is not smoked in and shows minimal wear inside and out. All glass is free of cracks/chips and was professionally tinted with a lifetime warranty on window tint (not sure if the warranty transfers to a consecutive owner). The car does not have any leaks- oil drips, water leaks, and no smoke from exhaust. The battery is almost new and the car starts readily in any weather. The power windows/locks all work as well as the power trunk release. The stereo is the original Pontiac up-scale "Monsoon" with the CD player, AM/FM stereo tuner and graphic equalizer. The CD player will occasionally have trouble reading a disc. I was told the lens probably needs cleaning. The power antenna still works well up and down when you turn on the radio. The door latches work properly inside and out. The headlights are the retractable type and function perfectly up and down. The AC is currently not working. I had it charged with refrigerant and it blew cold air for a couple of days, so I know it works fine as long as it has enough refrigerant. I was told the compressor has a slow leak through a seal on the housing and it will probably need to be replaced to make it work without any future issues. The tee-tops in this car do not leak, rattle, or squeak. I know this is a problem in some cars. This Firebird is extremely nice and is very well maintained and cared for, but is in storage now more than it is driven, so it is time for someone new to drive it.
