1996 PONTIAC FIREBIRD 5.7 LITRE
The 1996 Pontiac Firebird marked a significant year for the fourth-generation (1993–2002) pony car, introducing the legendary WS6 Ram Air performance package and upgrading its base powertrain.
This vehicle was imported into the UK brand-new.
It has the more desirable 5.7 L V8 LT1 engine giving it a top speed of 148 mph as well as the sought after T top roof panels.
The fact that the car has always been kept inside is reflected in its structurally sound and cosmetically outstanding condition.
The interior is in good condition generally with a small amount of wear on the seat bolsters commensurate with the cars age and mileage.
The vendor has undertaken to supply the vehicle with a new MOT test.
All in all a beautifully presented example of this rare and desirable American classic.
