What's your Favorite Firebird Generation and why?

I have always liked the 1969 Trans Am. So for me 1st generation.

2nd Gen are the Best.

I own a first, second and third generation Firebird or Trans Am.

All of them have their styling cues, their handling and performance characteristics.

I have to say that I like the third generation cars the best...why?

Great performance, refined handling, performance suspensions and modern classic styling.

But Martin. What is your Favorite?

2nd gen, it was my first car in 1984. a 79 403 car. I got up every morning to go to school just so I could drive it.

2nd gen because it was the first car I fell in love with as a kid around 5 years old

I like them all but 2nd gens are my favorite. I like the overall styling... the "beak" on the 70-73, the shaker, the nose on the 77-78, etc, etc. The profile of the 2nd gen T/A is probably my favorite of any car. The shaker, the fastback, the spoiler, the splitters... nice.

I like the 2nd generation when i purchased the firebird back in the day 1980 it looked a lot sporter than the camaro and the firebird is a lot roomer than the mustang and still is today. long live the firebird.

I was never a car nut growing up until at 17 I saw my first 1979 Trans Am. The car was brand spanking new in SE trim and it was breathtaking. I have loved Firebirds from that very moment on. At first I only liked the '79 design. They looked so aerodynamic with teh grille-less front end. I grew to appreciate the other years as well and eventually grew to love them all. I read everything I could about them, there was not much literature on cars at the time. I saved every magazine to this day.

2nd gen for me, I especially like this one...
