The Pontiac Firebird 1982-1992 was built from 1982 to 1992.
The Firebird, the most traded version: The third-generation Firebird marked Pontiac's transition into the modern era, built on GM's F-body platform shared with the Camaro. While often overshadowed by its IROC-Z sibling, the base Firebird offered accessible performance with clean, angular styling that aged remarkably well. Early models came with Pontiac's 2.5L Iron Duke four-cylinder or optional V6, while later years gained the respected 5.0L V8 option. The '85-'87 models are particularly sought after for their balanced proportions and pre-facelift purity. Production peaked in the mid-80s before declining through the early 90s recession. Today, clean examples are increasingly appreciated by collectors who recognize the third-gen's significance in Pontiac's performance lineage. The base models offer an affordable entry point into F-body ownership, especially low-mileage V8 examples that escaped the modification craze of the 2000s.
