Default Maple Red Metallic Formula!
I just picked up an 2000 Maple Red Metallic Formula on Saturday!! It has tan leather!! I sold my TA in Sept., and was missing the LS1 so I picked this up.

Just wondering how rare this color is with tan leather on a formula? Any one have any ideas?

I will post pics soon

Here are some pics. I'm thinking about getting Chrome ZR1's. Any other suggestions on wheels? After wheels, either a WS6 hood, or firehawk. The side moldings are off now!

Those wheels will look nice, I think taking the dealer sticker off the back driver side will help also.

nice car, I think torque thrust 2's with lowering springs would make that car look amazing.

Yeah, I had the TTII's on my TA and couldn't take cleaning them. If they come in chrome, it might be an option.

as far as wheels go , pick up some ws6's, polished aluminum will take some of that weight off from the chrome ones, or if wieghts not an issue, keep those and get a nice firebird center cap of something nifty

That Formula with the TTII's looks classy! I love the look, but just hated cleaning those wheels. I don't know, maybe!
I'll get a few pic of the interior.

what do you clean those wheels with? i am just curios , i use an ammonia mixture to clean the chrome ones, but that may be a little ruff on polished

Chrome Firehawk rims would be so pimp on that Formula. Polish the brake calipers.

My second choice would be TT2's.

No, I'm saying that because Chrome Firehawk rims look good on 'birds. I'd personally get some 'Hawks, but that just me.
