As a kid I WANTED to buy a Firebird BECAUSE of the flip up lights... and I knew I'd never be able to afford a corvette.

I'm the black sheep but i think this ^ is thw worst looking firebird in history. I HATE those lights. Horrible. Way too small and sleepy looking. I hate the breathless kit but i think they look about 100x better.

Some topics have been discussed over and over, so sometimes it pays to try a quick search before reposting an old topic. Otherwise, we have to give you a hard time about it ....I think that's one of the forum rules

i dont like them. Not for $1000 or even $100. I like the way the pop-up lights look on these cars

Flip-up headlights on the Firebird have become sort of iconic. Lose the headlights, you lose the name. It's like buying Firebird and turning it into a Camaro or Corvette. You should've just started with one of those to save yourself $1000.

I like my flip up lights, BUT I do hate the problems that come along with them.

I think I can deal with the small problems V.S dropping 1,000 on some lights. Back when I first saw these I kinda liked them but they just make it look really ricey to me now.
