Yup, I called them, but I will have to call back, they said there were busy taking orders... will try later... U have a Catalog???

Nope, car is not stock, just boltons though.... headers, exhaust, etc... It is an M6 with 64900 miles.... what did I pay... lol... enough I guess,,, If someone wanted to buy it, they would have to make a real good offer... Car is super clean and was a garage queen for most of its life...

what year is your car.... you are the first I have seen that looks like mine... mostly see black or red formy WS6....

SLP did NOT keep records of build #'s for Formula WS6's like they did for the TA's. Sad but true.

Mines a 96 with a little over 74k on it, i got it from the original owner all stock except a borla stainless steel tuneable exhaust and 4.10 rear end, mines an A4 as well i think i have another pic somewhere, not a very good one though. Ya when i talked to the lady at slp she asked for the last 8 of my vin number and 2 seconds later she said i was very luckey because she found it on record, i mean not that it mattered really so i dont know how luckey i really was, but its cool to know my actual SLP build nuber 0799, ya i wasnt trying to be nosey about what u paid just curious, i paid alot for mine, hell most ls1s could have been had for nearly what i paid, within reason i should say.........just wondering scrmn ws6 nice car but wheres your factory wheels? did u sell them? do u want to? i have a dd 97 medium cayenne red metallic trans am i jsut bought for the summer and to be frank about it 16 inch rims on 4th gen trans ams is not accepted.....

This only supports my theroy that Formulas were only given a WS6 package, if it was specially ordered that way by a customer who was checking off his personal build-sheet.... hence rarity and bad numbers keeping...

LT1- oops... I never even realized you threw a ? in there. I typically read this stuff at work, so you know Im hard at work... not!

Anyways, the stock WS6 rims I sold about 2 years ago. They were just taking up space and if I wanted there's plenty of people that are getting rid of them.
