Default Got a firehawk yesterday!!!!

So i got an 02 firehawk yesterday and absolutely love it. It has 40k miles and i paid 16k and i think that is a smokin deal for an 02. Has the optional spoiler which i love and i like the brake lights on this spoiler so much better than on the regular t/a spoiler.....anyways im excited and just wanted to let everyone know.

ooooo im changing my name to hawk108

upload your photos to photobucket.com, after you do there is a tag that says image beside it copy and paste that into your message and your pic should be up

Congratulations on the car, and I agree, show us the pics! And that is a pretty good deal, I think... Firehawks are completely and totally awesome.

Congrats, Firehawks are a thing of beauty so we are gonna need some pics. Is it a Formula 'Hawk or a T/A 'Hawk?

sorry for the huge pics.....i just figured out how to resize them. Later tonight ill post more that are smaller. the car has not been washed yet since it got here at like 10 last night from its 9 hour trip. Before i do any mods im just gonna get it looking its best and then i will probably just port the throttle body and get a short stick. After that im not quite sure what i will do cuz it already has dual/dual catback and a blackwing lid/filter
