Sounds like a Bullit to me. "Faster" than the GT

The Firehawks were just like the WS6's. Had a fancy smancy hood and some minor things that made them quicker....but really, they were just as slow as the others. A crappy CAI and an even crappier exhaust can only go so far.

I've actually seen Formula's that were Forumla V6's....that's why I said it might have been one. Surprised the **** out of me. Dual exhaust and all, just a V6.

A formula V6? That is stupid as hell. I bet you could have gotten a V-8 Firebird for the same price. [&:]

True that haha. My parents wouldn't of let me get a v6 pony/muscle car even if I wanted too.

I guess thats what you get when your dad drove a 442 and your mom had a Camaro.

I could of sworn it was a v8 though. It had dual exhaust, cutouts(The loudest F-body I have ever heard) and "Firehawk" on the door panels. [:-]
