General Motors released the 1999 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6 as part of a series built for model years 1998 to 2002. GM marked the end of the Firebird model with this special series and limited production to 2,000 vehicles

1999 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6 came with a 16-valve V-8 engine with Ram Air induction. This engine measured at 5.7 liters and 347 cubic inches. Horsepower measured at 320 at 5,200 rpm. Engine displacement measured at 5,665 cc.

This model clocks an estimated top speed of 165 miles per hour. Racing enthusiasts note that the car can go from zero to 60 miles per hour in 5.2 seconds with the manual transmission, and in 6.0 seconds with the automatic transmission. The zero-to-60 braking distance is 120 feet. EPA fuel economy for city driving originally measured 18 to 19 miles per gallon and 26 to 28 miles per gallon for highway driving.
The all-aluminum LS1 powerplant replaced the iron block LT1. Horsepower increased from 285 to 305 standard and from 305 to 320 for Ram Air Formulas and Trans Ams. Part of the Gen III family of engines, the LS1 was a brand new design that was developed with GM's sophisticated computer-modeling software.

It is comprised of a deep-skirt aluminum block with 6-bolt, cross-bolted main caps. Cast-in-place iron cylinder liners feature a bore of 3.90 inches and employ a cast nodular iron crank with undercut and rolled fillets and a stroke of 3.62 inches. The resulting displacement is 346 ci or 5.7 liters. Attached to the crank are powdered metal 6.1-inch connecting rods. The pistons are hypereutectic-cast aluminum flat-tops.

Few cars I've ever driven have gotten more attention. It has all of the raw American muscle power of a regular WS6 Firebird, Yes, the LS1 in the Trans Am and Camaro Z28 is identical to that of the C5 Corvette. GM released a special WS6 to mark the end of the Firebird, limited to 2000 cars. Equipped with Chevy's LS1 V8 and Ram Air system, the WS6 engine's power rating was bumped up from 320 hp to 325 hp in 2001. The Trans Am WS6 is a high performance muscle car.The 5.7L LS1 is leading-edge technology to tradition of the GM small-block V8,

A Pontiac Trans Am WS6 is a regular Trans Am with a performance package added. This vehicle was released in 1978. The performance package included an upgraded suspension. On later vehicles it also included a larger diameter sway bar, upgraded steering box, and upgraded tires and rims.  The basic shape of the Trans Am is more than a little aggressive, with bulging fenders, a front fascia with large foglamps and a hidden intake.

Junkyard Gem: 2006 Pontiac Solstice

Wed, Sep 4 2019

The debut of the Pontiac Solstice, back in 2005 for the 2006 model year, stirred up much excitement in the automotive world. Sales were brisk at first, and then they weren't so great… and then Pontiac itself went under The General's cost-cutting axe. One thing I have learned during my junkyard travels is that even sought-after sports cars eventually reach a point at which they start showing up in the big self-service junkyards. For example, the BMW Z3 began appearing in such yards about five years ago, along with the Audi TT. While the Honda S2000 still appears to be exempt from this process, today's Junkyard Gem shows that the time has now come for the Pontiac Solstice/Saturn Sky. The first Z3s and TTs I saw in the U-Wrench-type yards were crash victims, not worth fixing, and that's the case with this Solstice. In a few more years, I'll start seeing the occasional Solstice/Sky discarded due to general worn-outness. Someone grabbed all the undented front body parts and the transmission (these items, presumably, being valuable), but no junkyard shoppers have felt like pulling the non-turbo 2.0-liter Ecotec. The interior seems dirty, probably from exposure to the elements while sitting outdoors in this Colorado Springs wrecking yard, but not in bad shape otherwise. Perhaps the car's owner celebrated a return from Iraq with the purchase of a sporty new Pontiac, 13 years ago. These cars have an enthusiastic following, so I wasn't expecting to see a junked one so soon after production ceased. I felt the same way about the Chrysler Crossfire, however, and I found two of those last year. What's next, a 2002-2005 Thunderbird? This content is hosted by a third party.

A pair of Mitsubishis, the Mazda CX-30 and electric incentives | Autoblog Podcast #673

Fri, Apr 9 2021

This week's Autoblog Podcast features Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore and Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski as they debate the merits of the redesigned Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 coupes and whether or not they are distinctive and powerful enough to attract buyers. The duo spends some time discussing ongoing EV and infrastructure legislation before turning their attention to a trio of crossovers. Greg muses about the 2021 Mazda CX-30 before Jeremy talks about the refreshed 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross and completely redesigned Outlander. We get nostalgic as we remember the dearly departed Pontiac GTO before wrapping the podcast up by making one more suggestion to a longtime listener who is shopping for a vehicle to replace her aging Honda Pilot.

Autoblog Classifieds finds: 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT

Tue, May 15 2018

Autoblog's free Readers' Used Car Classifieds section is a great place to list your car for sale, and because these are readers, they often list really interesting cars. Occasionally we find interesting listings, and tell you what's special about them. This 1987 Pontiac Fiero was listed for sale at the time of this writing, but if the listing expires by the time you read this, feel free to browse for other great finds. Thirty years after General Motors stopped building it, the Pontiac Fiero might have finally emerged from the darkness. First, it was a humble commuter car that just happened to be a mid-engined coupe, then it was a re-skinnable basis for Fierorraris or other slightly strange kit cars, and then it made some Worst Cars of All Time lists due to its econobox ingredients, including its Chevy Citation suspension parts. But after a few decades, even the most mediocre car will become interesting as most of the examples built have been run into the ground; why not then the Fiero? The story of the Fiero is paralleled by a number of GM products, as it improved constantly the longer it was built, and by the time of the last model years it was quite decent indeed. And then the plug was pulled. The Fiero might not be a Toyota MR2 or even a Fiat X1/9, but it was made in two body styles, the notchback and the fastback, the latter of which looks especially good now. The Fiero also remains quite affordable, and the plastic body panels do not rust, unlike with the two aforementioned cars. This 1987 car advertised for sale at Autoblog Classifieds does not yet benefit from the 1988 cars' improved suspension, but thanks to its low, low 47,000-mile odometer reading, it looks to be in tip-top shape. The automatic transmission is just the three-speed affair, though, rendering the V6 car here more of a cruiser than a fiery hot canyon carver. Perhaps that has contributed to its good condition, along with the lack of possibly leaky T-tops. Could the Fiero have aged better than your Hall & Oates tapes?
