Bought a 98 Formula yesterday!!! Well I picked up my new LS1 car, a black 1998 Pontiac Formula. Its an A4 w/T-tops power everything, Grey Leather. Its in good shape. It needs a couple speakers, 2 new sun visors, headliner and a turn signal lamp for the right front as well as the power antenna fixed. Little stuff to me though. I paid $5500 for it. It had 122k on the odometer. It came w/ an SLP lid, SLP MAF and Flowmaster muffler in place of the stocker. Here are some pictures.

Thanks jetlag. This is my 2nd 4th gen and 4th F-body total. My old F-body was the one in my Avatar, a 99 Z28. I also own a 1990 "TA" and used to own an 87 F-bird

not a bad price. i recommend you start a fund for a new tranny as ~stock cars tend to keep 4L60E's to about 150k, so it wouldn't hurt to have the funds just in case. of course this figure isn't set in stone.
good looking car, gotta love those formulas!
