A Firebird is a Trans Am damnit. Almost all 2nd gen Firebirds/Trans Ams had the phoenix on the hood. The fender scoops are fake, yeah. But they're stock. Look at the mustang. It's got them. Corvette? Comeon. Dont be picky. |

dude, a TA is always a firebird, but a firebird is not always a TA. True the fender scoops are fake, but the shaker scoop sure ain't. Its feeding a Pontiac 455 for gods sake. Talk about stump pulling torque. Oh and about the bird on the hood, im rather sure that only TAs got that. Damn thats a sweet car.

Actualy, the extractors (fender scoops) WERE Functional in the early years, they were wind tunnel tested by Pontiac as a way to get the engine to suck cooler air up from the ground, on later TA's they and the shakers were just for show. |

Are you sure Clint Eastwood owned this car? It looks an awful lot like the one he drove in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. |

The pic I got is from a TA site that says "he owned" it, but I don't know if that means just for the movie, there's a whole sub-page off of Tachrev.com that has a listing of moives the TA has appeared in, and this was just one of them, didn't have a really big write up. |

Yeah, the Suzuki Esteem, Prizm, and that hideous Lincoln truck that lasted a whole 2 years. But the Camaro, Firebird, Eldorado, Prowler, Continental, and Oldsmobiles are some of the best cars America HAD. The Cougar was ruined a few years ago, that doesn't sadden me as much as the others. BUT THIS SUCKS.

hasn't been a REAL cougar since '73. The blackwood was a terrible idea, they only made it for one year, and I was never a fan of that oldmobile. |

Have you ever driven an Intrigue? I have. Luxury with a kick. They were great cars. |

I hope that the Cougar goes back to its roots if it's ever made again--as an upper trim version of the Mustang or something. |
