They happen to be quite comfortable in every day use, as well. Instrumentation is not only complete but nicely designed. All gauges are housed in a large round pod behind the steering wheel, with the speedometer and tachometer taking precedence. The center of the dash is occupied by the radio and ventilation controls. The 500-watt Monsoon stereo system was so powerful that when I put in a Dixie Chicks compact disc it made the rearview mirror jump and jiggle.
Muscle cars require certain sacrifices.
Even though it does have a small back seat, the Firebird is basically only big enough for two people. A hump in the floor for the catalytic converter intrudes on the passenger's foot space. Luggage space is limited, but the back seat does fold forward. A large suitcase should fit in the deep well at the back of the trunk. There have been rumors about future of the Firebird, and its Chevy sibling, the Camaro, which seem unclear at this point.
