Wink Traded the Z28 in...Pics *56K beware*

My all time favorite car has been a Trans Am, when I went shopping for cars 2 1/2 years ago the only thing that was in my price range was a Camaro. So Ive been patiently waiting for the day to come so I could get my dream car. I prolly would have been happy with a base T/A but I think this car takes the cake....


Here are the pics of my new 2002 Firehawk













I called SLP before I purchased the car to make sure it was real. They confirmed that it was. The build # is 1395 out of 1501 Firehawks that were produced in 2002.

Out of 1501 there were only 88 Arctic White hawks.

Out of the 88 white hawks there were only 30 Automatic cars.

It breaks down further than that but I have not been able to get the rest of the stats. The car only has about 39,000 miles on it and is in almost show room condition. Im glad I waited as long as I did.

Hope you enjoy!

Wow, a special congratulations to you.

I bought my Firehawk in 2003 with the same milage you have. This Firehawk has been worth every penny. I've had it 3 years and have driven 7k miles.

Very nice color combo. You know, if you'd bought the car new you actually had a choice in the decal color. If you didn't decide they came with torquoise by default. If you decide to migrate to the silver/red Firehawk decal you will still "look factory." A friend of mine has a 2000 white 'Hawk and his came with a silver/fushia decal. I had a decal shop replace the fushia (pink) swoosh over the i and replaced it with a red one. It looks killer.

Thanks everyone for the comments!!!

No mods as of yet, but I need some window tinting BAD. Other than that I will just have to get to a point of wanting more power before I really move ahead. I found a lady down here who does "Tru Flames" and I was going to buy some Vette Ls1 fuel rails, fill in the letters, paint it white, and have teal flames put on it, just to cover up the wires.

I actually like the teal and green. Not many cars came like that. So Im gonna use that to my advantage

Excellent, ..., Welcome to the 'good' side, ...

I see the chrome wheel option, the optional IROC style wing, & the Donaldson Blackwing airbox. Any other SLP options? (Look at the SLP tag inside the passenger side door jam.)

Based on those comments I thought you might like to see this color. Blue Kevlar. You should see this panel when the sunlight passes over it.

There's a lighter blue also.

wow thats really beautiful.....where might a girl get something like that???? also, do u have any idea if the decals can withstand the engine heat?

the only other options the car had was the floor mats and portfolio neither of which were in the car but I have already called my SLP guy and I found place that reproduces the floor mats. (which will be for show only)
