nice hawk. when i first got my 02 ws6, a week later the guy from the car lot called and asked if i'd like to trade him for an 02 formula hawk he had just gotten. got me excited but i found out it was a cloth/auto car so i stuck with mine.

FYI, ya might wanna check out the fenders tabs under the front fenders behind the wheels. It looks like the car was lifted incorrectly at one time or another & they bent the tabs out.

Welcome to the club, when I bought my car over the internet (eBay too!), I was nervous like a **** until I actually saw it in person and looked it over, the car was real clean other than needing a new battery and some tire repairs from nails. Good Luck.

I was looking at a black Firehawk before I got my red one. I despise the color purple, and when I found out the flame in "Firehawk" was purple, I was immediately directed to another color.

But it looks good & good luck with it!

More incorrect information, ..., Please , If you don't know the whole truth then don't spread rumors.

The OP purchased a 2001 car which would have had the original equipment GM/Trans Am airlid.
(Which is actually shown in the photo in the first post, ...)
