16. 1987 Pontiac Firebird
Third generation F-bodies are highly regarded as one of GM’s best vehicle lines. The third generation of the Firebird was very similar to the redesigned Camaro. The 1987 model year brought a few changes that would bring the car into the future. First, there was the TPI fuel-injected engine, which was a vast improvement over the 305 Carbureted motor. Then the interior was redesigned to be a bit more modern. The dashboard had faux carbon fiber across it and the seats were a bit more race-inspired then the Camaro. You can see that a lot of design work went into the 1987 Pontiac Firebird.

The car had several improvements over its predecessors. This Firebird model ended up being one of the best sellers for Pontiac. Step into the Formula version of the car and you were in for a real treat. The 4-speed automatic transmission was enough for most enthusiasts, while the 5-speed manual was short and crisp. The third generation of the F-body was one of the last authentic Firebirds to hit the market. Later years featured a car that was just in the shadow of the Camaro and the Mustang.
