[QUOTE=MillaTK]Sorry, wayyyy off topic, but how do you have a formula trans am!?!?



I've owned this car since April. AFAIK it was ordered as a Formula (WS9) with some Trans Am upgrades. One of them was the Trans Am lettering. Hence the identity crisis.

All Trans Ams are Formulas. They all have the WS9 code on the build option decal. The Trans Am is just an appearance package on top of a Formula.

So, technically you could call it a "Firebird Formula Trans Am", but most people would think you were silly and just call it a Trans Am

for sure. everyone say this site makes them spend money, for me it saves me money, by using the search botton (when it works) I can use the great info on here to see what i need to buy and what I don't need to buy, and then they tell you what order to to your mods in. plus you can get great deals on good used parts here, most of my parts are other people's hammy downs, and I saved a ton that way. (just a note some parts shouldn't be bought used)

I was looking for parts when I found this site. So I already had the money = speed bug. But this site also gave me the know how on doing it myself.




agreed, ask lots of questions when buying used parts.

I should refrain from drunk posting, but good point. I knew that, but I wasn't thinking about it in that sense last night, I don't really know what I was thinking actually, haha.
