Miles Overview
The 1989 Firebird is Pontiac's rear-drive, T-top-ready hatchback, the one that still turns heads at a stoplight. It's fast and low-slung, with tight steering that makes curvy roads fun, though wet traction is something to watch. The cabin looks great for its era, but the back seats are tight and the trunk is small for anything bigger than a weekend bag. Owners mention T-top leaks, rust underneath, and little parts that break, so plan on some hunting for replacements. The base Firebird is the one to pick if you want the looks and T-top fun without paying for the V8, though the Formula and Trans Am get the bigger engines. Its 3.8L V6 paired with the automatic transmission makes it a relaxed cruiser rather than a tire-shredder, but it still has enough punch for daily driving. Expect a softer suspension than the Trans Am, which means a smoother ride on rough pavement but less grip in hard corners.
