Check the RPO code, I did the same thing...you never know, someone could throw a hood on, some rims, and a badge and call it a WS6.

If you open the driver side door and look there is a little white sticker, it has all these three letter/number combos, its in alphabetical order, so just find the W's and see if WS6 is there, if so, its a true WS6, if not...well...you don't need me to tell you

- 9097 were A4.

How many had all 3 is anyone's guess. If you had a color other than Red or Black, I could tell you how many WS6 were that color, but that is the extent of the breakdown available.

The numbers I have for '95s are real sketchy (have numbers for only a few of the colors, and not black). All I can tell you is that there were 7448 '95 Formulas built, 4889 w/ A4 (1662 of those w/ 3.23 rear), 2559 w/ M6. 4342 had T-tops, 35 had chrome wheels, 3210 had Cass/EQ, 2804 had CD/EQ.

2766 TOTAL '97 Formulas built:

- 473 were WS6

- 642 were Red

- 1807 were A4 (860 of those had 3.23 rear), 959 were M6

- 1817 had T-tops

Again, how many had that combo is anyone's guess.

Not sure if I'd trust Wikipedia:

1995 models were the same as those of previous years, but traction control (ASR: Acceleration Slip Regulation) was now available. The steering wheel was also changed. It was borrowed from the Grand Prix.A performance package was also offered. The package offered Polyurethane Bushings, suspension upgrades,as well as a freer intake/exhaust similar to that on the Chevrolet Corvette, supplying 310 hp to very few of the Firebird models; those that did receive this set-up were able to accelerate from 0-62 mph in 4.9 seconds and cover a quarter-mile in 13.2 seconds at 110 mph (180 km/h). The 'Perform Transmission' button, which was available in the 310 hp Trans Ams, gave a 25% increase in torque with every kickdown, and resulted in a maximum of 350 ft·lbf (470 N·m) of torque.
I have the feeling that this is referring to the Firehawks that year.

Do you have documentation on your car (like a window sticker) that states it's 310HP rating?
