Faults:

I have had the transmission rebuilt in the vehicle twice. I have replaced the alternator, water pump, and the normal replaced parts (i.e. brakes, battery, thermostat, headlights, etc.). I have a electrical malfunction. I have to sometimes wiggle the tail light bulbs to get my blinkers to work. Weird, huh? I have a head light motor problem the do not go up and down at the same time, so I have to crank it down at night or unplug them and leave them up.

I know my problems are plentiful, however this is the most beautiful car I've owned! It is an eye catcher. My minor problems are only known by me and not others. I love my Formula. Her name is Rachel (the young white girl). This car has had some magnificent upgrades and out performs many other street racers.

Faults:

Just an oil leak, but that comes with a performance car.

General Comments:

This car is like a missile. When you're on the highway and hitting the gas, it always has more left.

It also looks real sharp. The body style is very similar to the new one, so it never looks outdated.

The car's handling could be a little better, other than that the car is a true girl getter, missile, that looks good.

Faults:

The fog light just went on the car. Also just replaced the wipers and the power antenna. Previous had raced the car so the rear end clunks a little bit at low speeds (going to rebuilt it this winter though). Service Engine light comes on when the car warms up (believe it to be because a K&N cold air kit was installed). First owner was a smoker so I had to take all the seats out to steam the carpets and get rid of the left over cigarette butts (I'm a cleanliness freak).

For the price, nothing beats this car on the road. Extremely fast (just have to be careful, this car was basically bred to race), and loads of fun with the t-tops off. Get the manual transmission, it's a lot more fun to drive. The only problem with the manual, is the Skip-Shift feature, it can be an annoyance. Around town, I only get about 13 MPG a gallon. Highway though, I can get a lot better. Insurance isn't too bad where I live, considering I'm only 18.

My car is black with the chrome rims and it looks absolutely sweet when cleaned and waxed. I just go paranoid because you can see dust and fingerprints on it very easily. I would only buy black again as a show car, because of that fact that I like my cars to look absolutely clean all the time. The girls also love this car; I get all the looks in it :)

I'm going to keep this car as long as possible, hoping to one day build up a collection of Firebirds and Trans Ams.
