It had a futral motorsports sticker on the back glass. Never had a hawks sticker that I'm aware of. Car was a 6 speed, with factory chrome 5 spokes, and it has the RS ground effects.

The one with the Hawk's banner wasn't me, but I knew them. I think that car got sold a little while back. I have a Futral sticker on mine (as stated above). And yeah, it was cool driving around campus

Owned both, the Hugger got far more attention than SOM does. Hugger is a more unusual color to see out on the road, always got a lot of compliments in that HOSS. Too many other cars and brands use a similar color to SOM now.
