Im kinda curious about how many people own one, they seem less common than Trans am's.

 

I think the early 2nd Gen Formulas look better than the Trans Ams (around '70-ish, with the trapazoidal grills, 2 headlights). The roof line looks flatter on those early cars (the late 2nd Gens have an extreme looking 2 angle roof line), and the forward scoops on that front end look better than the shaker IMO.

But, from late 2nd Gen on, T/A all the way baby.

 

T/A here.

formula 4 life lol. Looks like ****, goes like Hell.

 

Formy

 

me too

 

another here, I liked the feature of the Formula compared to the T/A. A little lighter, and most dumb ricers (as compared to smart ricers?) that see my single exhaust pipe think it's a 6-cylinder.

I prefer the nose of the Formula to the T/A and lots of my T/A friends agree. Don't know why someone would say it looks like ****.

And what's this about single exhaust? Mine had dual from the factory.

 

any one know how to find out how many nbm formulas were made in 2002 with automatic, traction control and tan cloth interior??? just kinda wondering

 

Hey I got a formy too. Also does anyone have a breakdown of production numbers by options?

 

I'm in too.

 

Heres my single exhaust

 

All f-bodies have single exhaust from the factory from the y-pipe back to a transverse muffler that has dual outlets. I replaced mine with a single inlet/outlet 3" flowmaster and a single left-hand tailpipe (similar to a V6).

Muhahahaha... can you say "Ooops, you picked the wrong car to try and dog?"

ANd I meant dual outlets

 

One more ... and I prefer the Formula rear spoiler ... ready to be flamed now.

 

I like the formula nose as well, sometimes I like it more than the T/A sometimes I don't...kinda wierd. I definitely prefer the T/A rear though. I hardly ever see formulas around and when I do it's a special treat.

 

ive only seen a handful of formy's around here. mine included. and i like being in the minority. there was only 1602 formys made in 99 alone. theres losts of ws6 guys who have their number posted that are higher than that. i feel like i should post my number.

1 of 1602 baby i guess i could try and break it down even further...or maybe ACW is going to chime in with the breakdowns for me

 

2001 Formy here!!

 

The Formula is the rarest of the V8 F-body models. I like that exclusivity. Plus, I just couldn't see paying an extra $4K for a different nose and larger rear spoiler.
