I'd have to go with the T/A model. In my opinion, it looks better than the z28 and formula. The bumpers(both front and rear), spoiler, and ground effects on the T/A are better than those of the formula, and same thing with the camaro. Also the style of the T/A is cooler looking than the camaro also, in my opinion.

I voted for the formula. It's more of a "sleeper" in my opinion and it looks darn nice. then again I am a little biased. I've got a black M6 hardtop

My buddy had a 93 Formula, wasn't a sleeper but those are nice looking cars. I have a Camaro and love it, but like the rest just as much.

i have had a formula 95 m6 with a TA rear hatch,it ran pretty good 14.20 on dr's in 90degree weather with 25% relative humidity,2400' altitude with 106,xxx on the clock the only drawback was the lack of driving lamps and i cant stand the look when the lights are up other than that my batmobile was quite fun.
when i purchased my 96 z28 it was me all the way it ran 14.1 on the same tire it has pleather interior compared to the cloth in the formula and i feel the same rollin day or night cause the headlamps are fixed and i have driving lamps...over all they both are sexy *** eye catchin cars i respect all of them,the pontiac must have the big rear spoiler

In my book they are all awesome looking. But putting them in an order I would have to go with the WS6/SS look - WS6 Formula then WS6 TA and SS Camaro would probably be the order I would go with if I had to put them in an order

it's funny because if you read the thread you would think most people like Formula's then T/A's the Z's the most, but the poll has T/A's and Z's tied for first and Formula's a good bit behind

Pretty close contest. Makes me feel better about my descision.

(Debating selling my Z for a TA. I like the looks of the Z better, but the TA's interior is nicer. Ah, descisions. )

I like my Z, I have done a few things. I put on a RS Spoiler off the 1997 body kit and painted it Black. The car is red. It added a little profile, made it look alot different.
