I'm on my second Formula. First time I looked for a TA and ended up with a Formula because it was a great deal. Second time around I was looking for a Formula. The look has grown on me and I like it better now. I also like how everyone thinks it's a V6.
One of the 2002 guys checkin in, an auto so looking at the last post I see 1 of 492. White car nonetheless, so that must narrow it down a bit.
Recent January mods yeild 376 rwhp - 361 rwtq, but now need track times.

another here, I liked the feature of the Formula compared to the T/A. A little lighter, and most dumb ricers (as compared to smart ricers?) that see my single exhaust pipe think it's a 6-cylinder.

what about no exhaust tips i don't think i could pass by as a v-6 with the cam, long-tubes, orx, and duals

I think saying you'd get a forged crank for safety's sake is like installing seatbelts on the livingroom sofa.
I got formula b/c of the Pontiac racing history behind it. I love Pontiacs. They are the reason we have muscle cars. No flaming please, I won't l;isten to any other arguement

Formula Firehawk here. I originally wanted a 1LE but was a couple three months too late for that so I got what I thought might be the next best thing.
I like it but I still wish I could have gotten a 1LE.

If anyone is missing NASCAR and it's not on Speed Channel, take a fistful of Skittles, throw them in the toilet and hit the flush handle. Instant NASCAR

I had a guy ask me @ the car show Saturday night if my car was a six cylinder, he was clueless to a formula. When I bought mine it had a T/A rear hatch on it, I thought about changing it, but I now think it looks good.
I've got an 89 Formula. Best of the 3rd gen f-bodies, in my opinion. (Although you won't be able to call it a true "3rd gen" once the current project in my sig is done!!)

OUR car is an 89 Firebird Formula, fully restored; SOM; all-new custom suspension; 4th gen brakes/wheels/9" rear; fully custom 402ci LS2 stroker; T56; and more!!
My wife never got to see it finished (one of her greatest wishes), but I'm going to dedicate an annual group car cruise to her after it's done. http://www.adamlaclair.com/jan300x200.jpg
