Default Firehawk newbie

I recently purchased a 02 Firehawk. I feel like I've fallen in love again. My wife said that she never worried about other women, but she never figured on competing with a car. I told her she should be flattered, it's not just any car.

I am a past f-body owner (94 Z28 94 - 96) and really love these cars. A good friend of mine who is the owner of an awesome 2000 SS told me about this board. I want to say that I am impressed and awed by the layout and the amount of information.

I look forward to posting about my car and reading about the cars you own. I am going to try and post some pics in the near future because I would like opinions on the looks of my car. It is silver with neutral leather which seems to be a rare combination on an already rare car.

Sounds intense. I'd be down for some pics-not too many Firehawks here in New Mexico.

Welcome to the board and enjoy your new LS1! I'm on my 4th f-body thus far at 21 years of age. Two LT1's and now my second LS1 and I'll never go back to the LT1's unless I plan on building an all out beast. I'd sooner do that with an LS1 though for sure.

Get some pics of the Hawk up. I'm jealous you got silver... my 02 WS6 was silver and I miss it so...
