Hi, My name is Mike, and I am a semi-reformed 'addict' - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Mike.Ss · 11-27-2013, 07:30 PM

Former Formula Firebird addict, now Camaro addict.

After 3 Formulas (all black, t-tops, manuals) over 24 years, I have now changed my "addiction".

Can't really say it is a "mid life crisis", due to the previous 3 cars.
But, when I change the the "color", I guess you can say it is a mid life crisis..

Mike.Ss · 11-27-2013, 07:47 PM

It did go to a good home though...
Sold it the night before to a former mechanic (and owner).

Happy_Dan · 11-27-2013, 09:16 PM

Nice!

67RS2010SS · 11-27-2013, 09:51 PM

Welcome, I grew up in West Haven. Nice looking car. Hopefully you can join us next season for some shows.

chevy 3 · 11-28-2013, 08:42 AM

Those are some cool pics. Can't wait to check out your ride.

DwRed1LTV6 · 11-28-2013, 08:45 AM

Welcome and Congrats on the new SS,

Looks good in the new shade for '14 !

Think it had to be hard to let go of the Formula

Good looking 'Bird ! !

One-Bad-ZL1 · 11-28-2013, 09:18 AM

Mike - that's a Firehawk right? A buddy I work with recently got one that looks just like yours. I can't help but wonder if its your old car. I'd love to check for ya. If you PM me the VIN, I'll ask him and see. Could be cool to know where she ended up.

Mike.Ss · 11-28-2013, 09:22 AM

No, Not the FireHawk option.
Sold it on the 15th of this month.
I know the person I sold it to (actually, his dad).

Yea, it was tough..
Had been sitting on the decision for 2 years (had test drove a 12 SS).
will miss the light of the t-tops (have the sunroof, but much less glass).
I do know, it went to a good home..

DwRed1LTV6 · 11-28-2013, 11:44 AM

Glad it went to a good home.
