According to your 4th and 5th symbol you either have a base Firebird or a Firebird Formula. One way to tell is by checking your wheels and tires. The base Firebird came out with 15x7 wheels with 215/65/15 tires. The Formula came out with 16x8 wheels and 245/50/16 tires.

But the car is 15 years old. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if those aren't the original wheels/tires. Isn't there an RPO code for the Formula?
