Vehicle Description
Classic Car Addict is excited to present this RARE 1998 Pontiac
Formula WS6 for sale in our Mesa, AZ showroom. There were only 221
of these ever produced from the factory, and this one still looks
brand new. One phrase for you........RAM AIR! 1998 marked the
return of a pair of legendary Pontiac monikers to the Firebird
lineup. This is the slipperiest Firebird design ever, and so it's
only fitting that this coupe wears a slick red lacquer that could
look wet even in a desert. This is a rapidly appreciating
collector's car, and so it's nice to see the previous owners have
gone to great lengths to keep the body and its original shade of
red in pristine condition. But a car like this was made for more
than just being parked as garage art. The WS6 package was never
subtle with Ram Air hood scoops, flares, and large fog lights all
competing for your attention. Best of all this is a T-top coupe,
which means you get the convertible wind-in-your-hair feeling
without giving up the rigidity of a roof section. Pontiac's
stylists did one heck of a job with the Formula interior, visually
separating it from its cousin, the Camaro, and giving it a unique
look. Deeply sculpted gray cloth buckets are supportive enough for
the spirited driving that this car encourages, and as the
top-of-the-line machine, just about everything was standard
equipment. Again, let us mention that is a rare car. That means air
conditioning, power windows, power locks, dual airbags, cruise
control, tilt wheel, and power seats. This one is so original it
even comes with the factory premium MONSOON AM/FM/Cassette with
seven-band equalizer. Checking the WS6 option at you Pontiac dealer
meant the Corvette's LS1 5.7-liter motor would be living under your
hood. But the upgrades to the fuel injected V8 did not stop there.
The Ram Air intake boosted power from the Formula to 320HP. It gets
to utilize this muscle better than the standard WS6 thanks to a 1LE
performance suspension, 10-bolt rear end, and larger 17-inch wheels
that were specific to the WS6 package. This Pontiac might have all
the right go-fast features, but because it's a modern classic, it
is also everyday comfortable. This includes the convenience of a
four-speed automatic, which provides enough gears to be quick off
the line as well as cruise comfortably on the highway. Plus,
there's power steering, four-wheel disc brakes, and ABS. But as
easy as it is to pilot this Pontiac, it has never been a daily
driver. The WS6 Formula is a rare bird with only 221 coupes built
in 1998. This is a valuable way to enjoy an up-and-coming classic
that has been treated with all the respect it deserves. Call us
today, 480-256-1459. This Pontiac will be sold on a clean/clear
Arizona title. Be sure to check out our Facebook, Instagram, and
