Is a 1992 Firebird a good choice?
Hello!
I am thinking of buying a Firebird Targa 1992, it has about 17,000km (around 10,000 miles if i'm not mistaken). The price is about $5,000. I think the earlier firebirds look better but they are also more expensive. The Firebirds from 1993 and newer are pretty ugly in my honest opinion. Is it a good car? Should I try to find a V8 one instead? I don't know much about cars so I could need some help. Thank you in advance. |

Engine has no balls.......
The other thing is, since this "only" has 10k miles, how often has it been driven.....how is the body? Would think showroom..... |

V6 or not, for that kind of miles and only 5k, id be all over it, Thats going to be a very solid start for any kind of project.

I have a 1991 Firebird Convertible with the 3.1L V6 and it has a decent amount of power. I love my car so I think its a good buy. Especially with 10K miles!
