The 2000 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Convertible pairs open-air flair with genuine performance engineering. Beneath its distinctive hood sits the all-aluminum 5.7-liter LS1 V8 shared with the C5 Corvette, rated at 305 horsepower and 335 pound-feet of torque in standard form. Power reaches the rear wheels through either a Borg-Warner T-56 six-speed manual or a 4L60-E four-speed automatic as on this Firebird Trans Am.

The chassis delivers confident handling, using front MacPherson struts, a torque-arm rear suspension, and a stabilizer bar at each end. Four-wheel disc brakes with ABS provide strong, consistent stopping, while traction control helps manage the abundant power. Pontiac reinforced the convertible body to preserve rigidity, and the power-operated top folds beneath a tight tonneau cover for a clean, uninterrupted profile.

This Trans Am Convertible wears metallic red paint and pinstripes, a striking contrast to the Neutral leather seating and Medium Neutral soft top. It is also equipped with a WS6 ram air hood. The car now shows about 52,500 miles.

This 2000 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Convertible is now offered by the selling dealer with a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report and a clean Illinois title.
