Default Noob from South FL
Hello everyone, I'm from Miami Florida. I'm new to Pontiac's and V8's in general. I recently sold my 95 Chevy S10 4.3L Vortec. It was causing me a headache. I have a friend that has a 2002 Formula, he's the one that tempted me into buying one. So i recently purchased a 98 Pontiac Formula, got it for around 5K. So far I'm in love with this car

Welcome man. Car looks really clean. I'm from Miami too, and in fact we have a Miami thread in the regional forums. How many miles does it have?

Thanks man.
I bought the car stock with the Borla catback. I just finished putting a whisper lid. Other than that, no other mods.
