Thumbs up SOM Formula Firehawk photos

Yesterday was a long day!

I got up at 5:30am and went to the airport, flew out at 7:30am. Landed in St. Louis at 9:30am, rode the Metrolink for 45 minutes to meet the seller at Casino Queen near the arch. Nice guys, I could tell they were going to miss the car. I hit the road around 11am and drove through Missouri, then drove through Oklahoma and back to Houston. Total of 13 hours of driving, made it home around 1:30am.

At a rest stop, I snapped a few photos of the new purchase,

2002 Formula Firehawk
6-spd, cloth interior, 9400 miles (10,350 now)
100% stock.
1 of 16 sunset orange Formula Firehawks built w/ 6-spd
1 of 9 sunset orange Formula Firehawks built w/ T-tops

I've been looking over a year and half for one of these







Here it is where I picked it up. Notice an arch in the background? Gloomy weather in St. Louis!

Sooo, what are your plans for it?
Is it staying 100% stock? That means you have to keep the mudflaps.

One thing....WOW!!! What a clean Firehawk!!!!

Enjoy that! Need more pics tho! I'm jealous now, that's really low mileage.

What'd you pay for it if I may ask?

$24,500

I can't leave anything stock. This one will be modified, but nothing will be done that could harm the car from being returned back to stock. No cutting or welding. I'll be putting the iForged Aeros from the black car on it soon, to preserve the original wheels and tires in storage.

Definitely love Formulas. I tried out a few Camaros, but never liked the nose or interior as much as the Formulas. Trans Ams look too busy to me, I like the clean and simple look of Camaros and Formulas.
