I am going to have to sell my Formula soon, and I wanted to get an honest answer on how much I should sell it for. It has 15,000 miles and it, and it is in perfect condition (looks brand new). Can you please help?

I would guesstimate around $13-15K. See if anyone bites, then lower it till you start getting offers.
A friend of mine just sold his mint 02 Z28 6 speed with 17K miles on it for $13K.

Yeah, the formula is an "in between" car. GM saw fit not to make the Trans Am in a hardtop from 1998 to 2002, but it made plenty of Firebirds and Formulas with t-tops. So if you want a seriousl Pontiac f-body race car you either buy a hardtop Formula (a rare find), or you give up and buy a hardtop Camaro (a dime a dozen, comparitively).
So, your car is worth exactly how much you are willing to sell it for and someone is willing to buy it for. For example, since it is a t-top car with an automatic I am personally not interested at all. If I were to sell my TA it would only be to acquire a hardtop, mn-6 formula. But, I can appreciate the car's excellent condition, and that Kelly Blue Book (www.kbb.com) lists it's retail price at $19,475. That's twice what I paid for my 1998 Trans Am last year, at just about 80,000 miles.

I bought a 2000 black formula with leather/int, with 13k on it for 17,000 and was listed at 17,900. I thought it was a good deal cause i was looking for a ls1 trans am/formula for awile and most of the others i test drove and looked at had around 48k on them for about 17,000. I dont know what other features u have on it but i'd put the car for around 20,000.
