I added a 3rd Porsche to my garage!
I just sold my heavily modified 1971 Protouring Pontiac Firebird, it has a 700 hp supercharged 6.2 engine and a fully built chassis, I decided to sell it simply because Im not driving it anymore, so its best to let someone else enjoy it. I managed to sell it for a very good amount, so what car should I buy? of course another 911! .. so I spent a few months hunting for the perfect one and found this one, offered the seller what I can pay for it and next it was mine, a 2013 Carrera S with the aero package, this is my first time to drive a new 911 and boy, its so much fun! .. hopefully I can keep this trio.

Here you go, its a 1971 Firebird Formula that I fully built in my garage (except for the body work, of course) it has all the potentials to put any 991 turbo s to a shame in any 1/4 mile strip, 700 hp LSA supercharged engine and 6 speed manual T56 Magnum trans and a bullet proof FAB9 rear end, it was a blast to drive!

I enjoyed every bit of that car, ran a lot of 1/4 mile blasts and countless roll-race runs and won most of them, but I felt the car was just too powerful and doesn't have any sort of safety equipment at all, besides that I got a good deal for it and found that nice C2S for also a good deal!

That Firebird is stealing the thread….. and rightly so.
My buddy’s first car was a 1970 Esprit, a real factory built sleeper in 1983 with high compression 400, TH400 with 3:55 LSD rear end. I’m always on the lookout for a mostly original 1970 FF. Like a 911, still a large ask for these….
