Welcome to Firecruise's 1996 Firebird Formula webpage. This is the one I've been looking for: a blue 4th generation Firebird Formula with Ram Air, T-tops, and chrome 5-star wheels. I was lucky enough to spot this car on Autotrader.com, listed under Patton Motors Inc. in Lawrenceville, Georgia, which is about a 7-hour drive from my former hometown of Clarksdale, Mississippi.
