From what I have heard a firehawk isnt made by GM, persay. It is a modified version done by an aftermarket company. The one you saw with a 'firebird spoiler' was a formula firehawk. The TA style one is a TA modified into a firehawk. GM produced the cars and the company added their own little perks much like SLP and the SS. I think the firehawk is done by SLP even (may be wrong on that but you get the point).

Also the factory trans am hood is changed out to SLP's copyrighted Firehawk hood as well.
The "long" led light spoiler was called the "Iroc" spoiler.Which was another option from SLP.
So the only cosmetic changes made were the rims, hood, and the upgraded spoiler.
And of course the the "Firehawk" stickers on the outside.

There was also a 10th aniversary Firehawk for 2001, which got gold wheels, gold stripes, different stickers, and bades as well as a special spoiler, I will go out and look at mine, I know it is a lot wider than the regular spoiler, bit I don't know about the long brake light. I was told that that spoiler was only offered on the 10th aniversary addition. You may find out more at:

I think that they are very interesting cars, thats why I bought one.

If you ever go to any NHRA Drag Races, a lot of the Firebird-based cars that run Super Stock (Al Corda, for example) run a Formula body with ram air hood. You can go to a national event and see anywhere from 3 to 15 of these, depending on the region of the country you live in. I wonder if that's where they all went???
BTW, Corda was the first in the 9's in SS if I'm not mistaken.
Just a little trivial info!

So the Firehawk has a Formula spoiler (at times) and a T/A front and a T/A rear? Then at others it is a T/A front and a T/A rear and a T/A spoiler. Then you can get an even different one with a T/A front, T/A rear, and a big LED light spoiler. Oh GM...

the TA firehawk looked exactly like a trans am except for the hood.
both the formula and TA versions of the firehawk got the same unique ram air hood, which resembles a cross between a "raptor" hood and a WS6 hood.
then u look at camaros.....SS----Z28.....thats it...
