T/A all the way. The nose is just clean lines all the way back to the high spoiler in the back. The formula was good looking with the ground effects in 97, but still T/A all the way.

I wondered the same thing about 3 yrs ago.

The Pontiacs have better seats and interior.

The T/As look cool, but the ground effects and wing look almost bulky, especially with stock wheels.

I have always thought the Formula front end was ahead of its time, its SO aerodynamic.

A lowered Formula has much smoother lines than any LT1 T/A or Z28. Just look at the front end from the side.

Flame away..

LT1 Formula's OWN the LT1 T/A's, I think the T/A nose just isn't as cool. Plug some foglights into the nose of the formula and it looks sweet. That HUGEMONGUOUS spoiler is just a little overdone doncha think?

now LS1 T/A's own EVERYTHING ELSE!

93-97, I used to like the T/A styling better but I greatly enjoy the Formulas now.

The T/A nose just looks so boring, I don't think I'd wanna go back now.
