Default 1999 Formula Firehawk

Year: 1999
Make: Pontiac
Model: Firebird
Price: $15000
Mileage: 52000
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): NC
Color: Red
Transmission: Automatic
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive

So I originally purchased this car with the intent of replacing my camaro as my DD, but after experiencing this car and driving it, I realized how nice this car really is and plans changed very quickly. The camaro sold a lot faster than expected, so instead of putting the wear and tear and mileage on this, I would rather see it go to a good home. I almost feel guilty driving this back and forth to work lately

Up for sale is my 1999 Firebird Formula Firehawk Coupe - SLP build # 0065
Stock 5.7L LS1 Engine with Automatic 4 speed Transmission
I am the second owner and the car currently has just under 52,000 original miles. Clean and clear North Carolina title

⦁Beautiful Bright Red Paint - 9/10 condition

⦁Upgraded leather interior - 9/10 condition

⦁Brand new set of Good Eagle F1 GS-D3 ($1,200)

⦁I have every single piece of documentation since the car was new, including all maintenance records.

This car came with all standard Firehawk options: Power steering cooler, 17x9 chrome wheels and 275/40ZR17 tires, Functional ram-air hood, Firehawk stainless steel exhaust, Firehawk decals, Firehawk emblem on the ashtray, Firehawk key fobs (2), Firehawk supplemental owner’s manual

This car was ordered with every optional SLP Firehawk upgrade:
  • Auburn limited slip differential with aluminum cover (3.23 gears)
  • SLP suspension package
  • Specially calibrated Eibach progressive rate springs rated at 223-448 pounds per inch, front, and 97-136 pounds per inch, rear
  • Bilstein shocks
  • Reinforced lower rear control arms and panhard rod with higher-durometer bushings
  • Thicker 1LE front (32mm) and rear stabilizer bars
  • Synthetic lubricant package
  • Firehawk car cover
  • Firehawk mats
  • Chrome Wheels

According to http://www.firehawk.org/images/lit/1999/1999.pdf :
⦁1 of 34 Firehawk Formula coupes built in 99, 1 of 6 Red formula coupes built
⦁1 of 1 red formula firehawk automatic coupes with the full options

Description: This Firehawk has been extremely well cared for over the past 17 years. This car has been kept mostly stock with the exception of a few additions and upgrades. I recently purchased this car from the original owner who was meticulous about the upkeep of this vehicle. This car runs, drives, and handles very well. It drives extremely straight and steering is very tight. This is a very fun car to drive and one of the most comfortable cars I've driven. This Firehawk is one of the nicest 4th generation f-body's I've ever seen. Shifts nice and firm through all gears. This car needs absolutely nothing but a new owner. I will note that the car shifts firmly into gear (both in Drive and Reverse). This has been verified from the dealership as normal operation.

Aftermarket Additions & upgrades:
  • SSBC brake setup. Larger rotors on front and rear. Larger upgraded calipers on front with braided brake lines. Definitely improves the driving experience over a stock f-body. The original brake setup can be included at the buyer's request.
  • Medium window tint
  • Optima red top battery
  • Seats recovered in leather
  • Built in radar detector (easily removable)

Additional Items Included w/ sale:
  • Full binder of documentation records - original invoice, window sticker, SLP birth certificate & documentation, full maintenance records, etc.
  • original firehawk car cover
  • Customized firehawk floor mats (in addition to originals)
  • Hypertech Programmer
  • Firehawk brochure and calendar
  • 2 sets of keys with Firehawk key chain
  • Firehawk supplemental owner's manual

Negatives:
-While the paint is in excellent condition, there are a few minor paint chips and blemishes. I captured the most noticeable chips on the hood in pictures
-Hairline crack in the passenger side door panel.

I will get some engine bay shots up next week. Please serious inquiries only. I will be traveling this weekend, but text me with any questions. 585-576-1044. Car is located in Charlotte, NC

I may consider a trade for a nice TA or WS6. Possibly a G8 GT as well. I'm going to be picky about any potential trades though. My preference would be a six speed.

Thanks for all the compliments. No bites on this one yet. And like I mentioned above I might consider a trade.
