This Year's Model Updates:

Entering its last year of production, the Firebird gets few changes for 2002. Power mirrors and a power antenna are now standard on all models, and Bright Silver Metallic replaces Blue-Green Chameleon on the color palette.

Pros:
  • Powerful V6, spectacular V8, true muscle-car performance at a bargain price.
Cons:
  • Boy-racer-in-gold-chains image, cheesy interior plastic, V8 nets sky-high insurance rates.

    What a great machine to slip into retirement with! I traded in my GTP which was fun, but this WS6 is beyond belief for great driving - even in city traffic. Had to have the TransAm to save as a collectors item. Sorry that this is the end of the Firebird line.

    comfortable, 29mpg on the highway with a 6speed, faster than most anything on the road, a real looker

  • Awesome 2K2 WS6 - 2002 Pontiac Firebird
    By -

    I absolutely love this car! I have a 2002 T/A WS6, 6-speed Hurst of course! I owned a 2001 F-150 Lariat Ext. Cab Off-Road 4X4(which I dearly loved) and one night I drove by the Pontiac dealership to see the Trans Ams and fell in love. The next day I went in and drove what was soon to be my new Pewter Trans AM. Then on 7-25-01 I bought her! No regrets!!!

  • T/A Muscle - 2002 Pontiac Firebird

    Car is Very Exicting to Drive , torque is right there at 1,500 Rpm. Goes over very smooth over bumps and very tight in turns, what a ride. Trunk is a little tight, but with the fold down rear seat you have some space inside.

    As everyone else said I love this car. I had to buy one before they were all sold out. I was fortunate enough to get my paws on one in a different state and had it shipped to the motor city. I went with black on black on black. This car is out of hand. Every where I go people tell me how much they like it. You dont see many of these babies on the road. To all you TA owners hold on to them.

  • The last of the Best - 2002 Pontiac Firebird
    By -

    Ram air T/A is the best sports car I have ever owned. Power is great, but I have some goodies in the future to put with GMs best. Then you cant touch this. I just drive it on some weekends otherwise covered in garage

  • How dumb can GM get! - 2002 Pontiac Firebird
    By -

    I purchased my black 3.8l 5M Camaro some months ago and still love it. Bargain performance. Great fun to shift. 205 horsepower blows away the pitiful little more expensive imports.Love the look--sleek and sexy. Seating is adequate, although sometimes difficult to see the gauges unless the wheel is positioned correctly. Its a shame that GM cant see the value in this excellent product.
