whats the difference between a 99 formula and a 99 TA
I just recently bought a 1999 Trans Am. but according to the title and the vin its a firebird formula. it says trans am all over the car and it has the 4 barrel hood. I was just curious as to what the difference was. thanks.

Yep, the vin comes up as a formula..(mine does too), because it has the formula package.. but then then add onto it to make it a Trans Am.

Black- 2002 Formula Firehawk
here is a picture of my future 02 formula firehawk. As stated above there is no foglights mounted close to the licence plate opening oh and the previous owner put a suncoast ws6 hood on. Ill be putting the original firehawk hood on as soon as i pick up the car this tuesday
Here is a picture of a TA with the firehawk hood on

White- 1999 Trans Am
I have a 99 TA too and it will always say that on the VIN because they have the same engine. The only differences are exterior...like the other fellow said, the front clip has the foglights and air holes, the rear bumper hugs around the exhaust, and finally, the formula does not have a full spoiler like the TA. Hope this helps solve the mystery a little. Aesthetically, I like the TA better

Ok, well that answers alot. thanks to all who answered my question. no doubt that I have a trans am. the reason I was curious was because my 86 says trans am. here is a pic of my car and as you can see its a trans am. thanks again.

Black- 2000 T/A WS6
The front bumber is different and so is the rear spoiler, but the formula is lighter than the T/A which= a bit faster!
