Correction: While this is likely an editing error and the car is indeed the getaway car sitting where it shouldn't be, it can be excused by the fact that Pontiac made a whole lot of Firebirds (they were everywhere you looked when new). It's plausible (while perhaps improbable) that the getaway car's twin is waiting for a green light moments before the real getaway car arrived. There is sufficient time for that car to drive away while the one gunman kills the other and grabs the loot prior to the second car's arrival.
