Nothing wrong with that Bird! It just looks stockish........ There is one locally around that looks just like yours, it has dual exhaust, might not even have a muffler because its a noisy car! Back when I had my LT1, driving home from work I had an encounter with this firebird, you could tell it was a six cylinder, he lines up to the light and revs his engine...... I just couldn't believe that he would try that... I just ignored him and went on my business.... on the highway he waits for me and wanted to race... I ignored him 3 more times til he got on my nerves, I went at it and left him way behind! Whats the moral of the story? All f-bodies are cool, but theres a line.

Looks like a nice car. I'm not too thrilled by the picture in the weeds/grass though. It's just not my thing.

It would probably look a like a redneck 2nd or 3rd gen "high-performance exhaust." I' d put some kind of tip that flows a little better with the car.
