Vehicle Description
1981 Pontiac Firebird For Sale This 1981 Pontiac Firebird closes out the second-generation body style in red over black, showing 40,000 believed-original miles. It's a genuine one-owner car, having stayed with the same owner since it was purchased as a first car during high school, the kind of unbroken ownership history that's hard to find on a car pushing its fifth decade.Power comes from the factory 3.8-liter (231 cubic inch) Buick-built V6, the standard engine offered across the Firebird and Esprit lines in 1981 and rated at 110 horsepower and 190 lb-ft of torque from the factory. It's backed by the TH200 three-speed automatic, the transmission GM commonly ran behind V6-powered F-bodies of that era.The car was ordered new with Pontiac's factory red wheels, a color-keyed option that plays directly off its red-over-black combination. It's also been thoroughly undercoated and remains notably clean underneath, a detail that carries real weight on a car from an era when rust claimed far more Firebirds than mileage ever did. Inside, the original setup has been updated with a modern radio styled to read as period-correct, giving the cabin usable audio without looking out of place against the rest of the factory interior.1981 marked the final year of an 11-year run for the second-generation Firebird before Pontiac moved to the redesigned, fuel-injected third generation for 1982. Six-cylinder cars were the minority that year, with total V6 production across the Firebird, Esprit, and Formula lines reported at just over 23,000 units against total Firebird output well north of 70,000. Combined with its mileage and one-owner history, this car is a straightforward survivor rather than a restoration, low-key by Firebird standards but honestly presented for exactly what it is.NFI Empire specializes in classic, exotic, modified, and luxury vehicles.
