After I sold my 98 Z28 in 2005 due to a job loss I had always wanted another LS1 car, but I wanted something different. I always liked how the 93-02 Formulas were styled and wanted one but not in the same colors everyone else had. After a few months of searching I found it! 1998 Sport Gold Metallic Formula with low 63K miles and a WS6 hood already on it ! Here's some pics:

On the trailer on the way home from Jersey...


On the Dyno for baseline and Tune By Frost the next day!


Added WS6 wheels, a lid and Mufflex 4" catback the same day!








It made 300/325 to the tire after the lid and Frost Tune !
I have yet to get it back on the rollers after the Mufflex but will
have numbers from that increase soon. Some local people are not fond of the color but I love it !

 

Sharp Formula congrats!

 

i cant see the pics , wtf mate.

 

Not sure, I've checked them on my log on and two others here at work?

 

They work on my phone. Looks great

 

I was about to say get a WS6 hood but it's already there! Perfect car, man. Post a side shot of the car if you get a chance-I've never seen a Formula with the WS6 hood from the side and that must look awesome...

 

Solid Gold Awesomeness! Congrats.

 

i looove gooooooooooooooold. nice man...same story for me with the job and the wanting another LS1...glad you got it!

 

I'll never forget the first time I saw a Sport Gold WS6 on the road. The effect was startling! Probably not my color but I do appreciate it.

 

Love the color...but then again, I might be just a LITTLE biased...

My only mods are the WS6 hood, SLP Loudmouth, Spec 3+ Clutch, Torque Thrust II's and Skip-shift eliminator. Everything else is bone stock and it just went over the 60k mark.

Welcome back...

 

omg gold hardtop 6 speed , with a v8 , i love it .

 

Looks good!

 

For the OP:

Total '98 Formulas Built: 2200
w/ SGM (63U): 62
w/ SGM + A4: 44
w/ SGM, A4 + T-top: 33

For ramairetransam:

Total '99 Formulas Built: 1602
w/ White (10U): 139
w/ White + M6: 37
w/ White, M6 + HT: 15

 

That's great info THANKS...I knew it was one of around 60 or so produced from reading more on here but the T top breakdown makes it even more rare! Looking back at it now I can't even believe I really found it. And to think I was disappointed at first that it wasn't a real WS6 Formula...

 

I love unusual factory colors and that gold is certainly one of them. NICE!!

 

I love that color, I also had no clue formulas were so rare. I guess I should be slapped for wanting to part mine out at times lol. Only 2200 '98 and 1602 in 1999 really?

 

I was shocked when I started looking for one....I could have gone for SOM too but they were all so far away and a bunch of miles on them....

 

Very nice car i can't wait to make my TA to a fake formula lol I already have one TA just want something diffrent...

 

I had found on on few years ago that the total formulas produced for 1998 was 2123. Where did you find 2200? Mine is a 98 nbm. congrats on ur purchase!

 

Thats is quite a rare bird. Congrats!
