Wow! Didn't know this car and it's predecessor were this quick !
The earlier FH was doing 0 - 60 in 4.6 ? 350 HP LS1 ?
Never saw one on the road...

The '92 Firehawk was probably the fastest. 350 hp, and 390 ft/lbs in a 3rd gen body. The rest of the Firehawks aren't really any faster than the rest of the f-bodies in any given year.

Yep, that's the one they mention on page 1 ! 350 HP, 0 - 60 in 4.6, 1/4 13.2 @ 107 mph ! wow !
But from 0 - 100, C5 gets there quicker ! That's the weight and aerodynamic factor there !

The 92' Hawk is one of my alltime favorites , like a 89' TTA that many don't even know about.

Almost bought one a few years back , still kicking myself today. They don't come up for sale too often.

Read about the last 3 made with an all aluminum 366 cube mill.

I remember seeing a red 1992 Firehawk brand-new for sale at Burns Pontiac in Mt. Laurel, NJ. Simply incredible car for its time, but priced too high.

A Turbo TA or a 92 Firehawk? If it is a real 92 Firehawk, it has a ZF6 trans. There were no autos....

All the Turbo TA's, however, are autos (200R4 IIRC, not the standard 700R4 that the regular cars got).
