Take a look around on Ebay, there were two 92 Trans Am convertibles I saw yesterday. The convertibles aren't too hard to find if you know where to look. A week after I bought my RS, I came across two Firebird convertibles, an Iroc convertible and another RS convertible. None of them were quite as nice, but they were cheaper than what I paid too.

I love Red's vert. It embarrassed mine at LV in the looks department.

Here's mine yet again

Yes the top was down when I did that burnout. And yes the smoke was everywhere, in the car, under the car, over the car, it was unbelievable.

well, the sig pic isn't working, my white vert is not as nice and original as drew's, nor is it as amazing as Mr. Iroc's, but I like it.

How do tinted windows look on the verts. I have a vert myself but I've been hesitant to get it tinted because i figured it would look weird certain times like when the top is down and the windows are up. I don't know, thats just my opinion, how do others feel about the tints on verts?

Yea that looks really good on your car, it also helps that the car itself is a dark color, unfortunately mine's a white car so I dunno. Does anybody have pics of their verts with the top down and tinted windows up? This is my main aesthetic concern, if it looks good i'm def going for it

Here are some pic's Tom Keliher took recently of a Formula 'vert. I don't know who owns the car. I saved the shots because this car has a spoiler I've never seen before. Take a close look.

hey guys, thanx for all the pics

all those are really nice cars

i went to look at the 69 today and it was a load of BS carrying a $14k price tag

anyways, i'm trying to save my money for an engine swap into my camaro cuz i really think my puny little V6 is on its way out..............so i either need to get the swap done quickly or buy another camaro at a cheap price that may need some work, then save some more money and do the swap and put work into the next camaro

anyway that i choose though, i'll wind up with a cool car
