Pontiac Sunbird |

Not quite, it's an Oldsmobile Firenza (which was also built on the J-body platform). The Sunbird's headlights sloped down to a point, unlike the rather rectangular headlights on the Olds. |

A 1982 Oldsmobile Firenza is actually driven by Sondra Locke character. |

Something that confuses me: Weren't these cars FWD? The reason I ask: When Sonda Locke tells of the hispanic guys and punches the accelerator to get away from them, if I remember correctly the REAR tires actually smoked. |

Yes they were front wheel drive, but many movies are completely oblivious when it comes to cars, so they make stupid little mistakes like that. I noticed the exact same thing happen with this K-car taxi in the movie "Short Circut" /vehicle_12463-Dodge-Aries-K-1981.html |

I kind of like these, rather fun looking. |

they were launched nearly 35 years ago ( already ! time flies fast ! ) and i still don't get the idea of getting the turn signal between the headlights... -- Last edit: 2016-09-07 06:52:37 |

It was a throwback to the 1959/1967-68 Olds models |

Beautiful Car. Much better Looking than the Boxy Style of the '88 |

Which? That 1 you can only see from the Taillights to Rear Tires? |

I love the look of this car, I wish one of the people I watch on YouTube would restore one. |

The car I drove through my first 4 years of college and part of grad school! Not a bad car, sturdy, reliable, got great mileage. My parents got it from my grandparents so I’d be able to drive to my classes. Late in 1992, I got broadsided by someone who ran a red light and the car was out of commission for about 2 yrs. |
