Do you ever drive the car? or do you just keep it in storage because it's rare?

I rarely drive it because it is rare. I think I just enjoy looking at it, stock f-bodies are slow and not *that* fun to drive

I guess I'll be the negative one here... I highly dislike the stretched tires on the wheels and it's all around not good lookin'....well, of course the color is nice

I was wondering because I know you never drive that car. Best looking f-body on this site IMO, Its my dream combo as well. I had a chance to buy a SOM Formula here close but it had 60k on it, more miles than I wanted.

My next ride is going to be a SOM or NBM Hawk.

And Nine Ball, I know what you mean about the Formula hatch thing, some people just don't understand, but I LOVE IT!

were there some that were "formula" firehawks and then some that were "trans am" firehawks?
