Still, it would be fun to watch the Firebird, Camaro and Mustang compete as pony cars over the next few years, just like they had in the heyday of the class.Recall 89632 started on by MFR effecting 121,680 units. In addition to this pony car competition, Firebird was facing competition from import cars and a car-buying climate that just wasn’t as friendly to domestic sports cars as it had once been. The fourth-generation Mustang had been introduced in 1994, and sales rose in 1995 as the new model that proved to be particularly popular continued to catch on with the public. While it was great that both the GM pony cars saw production increases in 1995 (122,844 Camaros were built), the Mustang did too. However, this number also would drop in 1996. Total production was up to 13,345, compared to 10,672 the year before. Trans Amĭespite not selling as much as the base model, the Trans Am was continuing to grow in popularity. This number would be cut by more than half the following year. However, the model would continuously be the lowest selling Firebird model, and 8,485 were produced in 1995.

Firebird FormulaĮquipped with the V8 engine standard, the Formula was designed for drivers who wanted the performance of the small block V8 without the added expense of the extras the Trans Am provided. With total production at 29,156, the base model outsold the other two models combined. Firebirdĭespite low sales numbers in 1993, the base model was quickly emerging as the most popular Firebird. Other than the new steering wheel, the interior of the car also was the same as it had been in 1994.Īs had been the case since the introduction of the third-generation cars in 1993, there were only three Firebird models available: base, Formula and Trans Am. Formula and Trans Am models in 19 also had the option of adding a “Transmission Perform” button, which provided quicker and firmer shifts. These cars were some of the most powerful and best built cars in the history of the Firebird.ĪSR, or Acceleration Slip Regulation, was added as the traction control option in 1995. Powering the Formula and Trans Am models once again was the powerful 5.7 litre V8 rated at 275 horsepower. Needless to say, the standard V6 engine, a 3.4 litre motor rated at 160 horsepower was no longer relevant and would be discontinued for 1996. The 3.8 litre OHV 3800 V6 produced 200 horsepower. Sales were good, and the new V6 engine was a sought after options for cars produced mid-way though the year. Unfortunately this number would drop the following year and production would proceed to hover around the 30,000 mark for most of the rest of the of the car’s career.īut things were looking up in 1995. During the production year, 50,986 Firebirds were produced. And it was a good bet.ġ995 posted the highest sales of the fourth-generation so far, and in fact the production totals would go on to be the highest of any other year before the car was discontinued in 2002. But Pontiac was betting that the public would realize just how good the still relatively new fourth-generation Firebirds were and decided to essentially leave them alone. Other than the above changes, the 1995 Firebirds were extremely similar to the 1994 models, which themselves were basically indistinguishable from the 1993 cars.
