Default Picked up the new car

Its a 1998 Firebird Formula WS.6 1 of 221 made in 98.

Here are a few pictures, i pretty happy i waited a little while to get what i wanted instead of settling.

I say get a hatch with the high rise spoiler, paint it to match and it will complete the look.

Ummmm, but the Formula came with the lower rise spoiler. Adding the high rise would just make it look like the TA. The WS6 Formula is a rare find....Congrats....

yea i like the high rise spoiler look and the T/A rear bumper but i think i would be shunned by the formula gods if i changed it.

Ya i know the guy that had the car when the mods were added. they called it the demon. you must of bought it from the guy that he sold it to cuz i know he was selling it not to long ago. Its got a good size cam in it and put down some good numbers but it defenitely needs a better tune.
