Generalizations: the Five Best GM Cars Ever and the Five Worst

February 19, 2018

Pontiac Firebird (Second Generation)

The Pontiac Firebird is amazing. The first-generation was fine and dandy, but the second-generation was where the model really came into its own. The car boasts a ridiculously-flared front end, a stretched body, and a stunning range of engines. From a humble 231 Buick V6 all the way up to a stonking 455 Pontiac V8. Then there’s the real reason this car is so famous: the Trans Am.

It’s cliche to mention Smokey and the Bandit, but I’m still going to. Whenever it was that you saw Burt Reynolds driving this beast across America, it cemented the Trans Am in your mind as a dream car. The 1978 model had its compression boosted, with horsepower in turn increased to 220 horsepower. Cover this beautiful car in a black and gold paint scheme with a badass bird decal on the hood, and you’ve got a recipe for countless bedroom posters across the world.
