Honestly if I were to sell it I wouldnt let it go for a penny under 7k


The details-

1998 Firebird Formula , sport gold metallic- 1998 only color and 1 of 60 formulas made in the color

LS1 , A4 , 2.73 gears

2 owner car, 75,944 miles

Options-

T-tops, cruise, single cd monsoon, pwr drivers seat (grey cloth interior), traction control, Z rated tires ect


The good-

Very straight body, no rust, no dents, no dings, paint is all original and a solid 8+ out of 10, clean car fax

interior is nice, no cracks in the dash, seats have always been covered since new

Runs good

Ran a 12.7 @ 111mph at Atco with the current mods


New tires (Khumo) front and rear, new brakes


Mods-

Slp lid, Mac y pipe with high flow cats, 3" hooker exhaust, stage 2 tranny rebuild with shift kit and 3500 yank stall


The bad-

Drivers side window motor is shot, drivers door panel cracked at bottom, speakers are shot, SES on due to 02 sensor (new one included with car), maf has been ported poorly, low oil light comes on sometimes (level is fine most likely the float sensor needs replacing or the wires have a short)

Pictures are of the car washed and dried but not waxed

Mods this summer will include heads/cam/ls6 intake, headers and gears

All in all I am VERY happy with it, thanks for looking!
