i know, only about 700 brought to america and theyre more prone to rust than hondas. I regret selling it, but to be honest the rust was pretty bad, parts were hard to find, and stupid random things kept goign wrong with it. I.E. the radiator fan just decided to stay on non stop 24/7, draining the battery.

Was a fun car to own though, fun to drive and a bit of a head turner with a blow off valve.

firebird formula firehawk this **** is RARE!!
I'm pretty positive that they did not make the Firehawk in the 3rd gen Birds. There was a Formula model, which I have, but no Firehawk until the 4th gen.

If anybody knows for certain about that, please let me know and tell me the source of your info.

Also, if you look closely, the Firehawk decal on the side of the door is the decal they used on the 4th gens.

Hmm, I stand corrected. Thank you.

I wasn't aware that SLP did the Firehawks for the 3rd gens. Looks like a ****ing beast though. Maybe I never knew because they seem to be pretty rare. Even seeing a 3rd gen Formula around my parts is pretty rare, especially one in good condition.

I'll have to do some research on the suspension used on those because the suspension on my Formula is needing replaced.

Thank you again.

1992 Bugatti EB 110 GT, how did we forget about this car.. 3.5L V12 quad turbo producing 550 hp, all wheel drive, with 73% power hitting the rear wheels, later versions like the EB 110 SS produced 650 hp. This is one of the few that could go over 200 mph in the early 90's.
