WS6 or Firehawk?

**thewuse** · 07-01-2009, 05:09 PM

So for a while now I've been creeping through the threads and pages of ls1 and have a new interest in Pontiac's Firebird, but anyways, I've seen a nice 1999 Firehawk for sale not sure about pricing and mileage, but I have gone and looked at it and it looks in excellent condition no scratches or anything, now I've also been looking online for an 00-02 WS6 TransAm and have found some with lower mileage (quite expensive), but most with higher mileage.

Now for the question...

Whats your opinion on the 1999 Firehawk mint condition vs. an 00-02 WS6 TransAm?

Thanks

i dont know how much to pay for it but they are nice. the firehawk is more if you are collecting cars and if you want to mod it the save the cash and get a ta and go from there. thats my .02

Yea, the Firehawk should really be kept stock.

Agrees, the WS.6 looks damn right scary, as the Firehawk has a more calm and laid back look with a punch.

The Firehawk is the top line F-body

The Firehawk is rare but most people dont realize that...I get more compliments about appearance at the track with my WS6 than my buddy does with his red Firehawk.

WS6 ftw.

no F*ck all that noise

get a firehawk..mod it if you want..i dont care..it doesnt matter..there is a different vibe from a firehawk..they are rarer and mean business...when i bought my T/A ..i passed on a formy ws6 and a firehawk..in retrospect..i should have went with the firehawk..and then the formy ws6..both cars you DONT see on a regular basis..and both are awesome looking

greater then

however...i do love the look of my ws6 hood..but it is also a aftermarket hood that is raised more then stock

I went with which one I liked the look of more. The WS.6.

Nothing wrong with Hawk's though for sure....beautiful cars.

cause they are rare, mod only if you keep all the original stuff.

That's comparing apples to oranges. Show two pics of both cars in the same condition,then let people decide.
I still say The WS6, A WS6 will always catch my eye before a Firehawk.The only thing I like better on the Firehawk is the name.

**shady milkman** · 07-05-2009, 10:41 AM

both in the same condition ??? what the hell..both are in great condition.

no i am saying that firehawks cost more, they are the least built, and they are harder to find in good condition. They were a special options car and when our cars are worth anything in the 2040 barret jackson auction, then the firehawk in mint condition will fetch more than a ws6. there are too many ws6's out there for them to be worth anything in the future i see.
