V6 has smaller wheels, the spoiler is not raised, no body molding, and its slower and sounds like shit. :lol: sorry had to. unless you talking about the formula, then it looks identicle to the V6 excetp it has dual exhaust tips. The trans am’s are pretty un mistakable. ---

No the V6’s have a single exhaust outlet on the driver side, he probably had some POS dual muffler on it. edit\* never mind ---

You can get a V6 with a body kit and dual exhaust tips from the factory… Formulas are slow & gay ---

> [@Minglor](#): > > It was slow as shit and didnt sound too healthy > but had the dual tips. Must have been a 6 with dual exhaust. They’re easy to spot because for some reason they always sound like absolute garbage, whereas the V8’s almost always sound at least good if not downright awesome. Plus the late F-body V8’s were all decently quick. So it was either a 6 with dual exhaust or an 8 that was running on 7 cylinders or something. ---

Honestly this thing did not move at all… and the v8 is rated at ~300 hp and (i would hope) sound much better ---

yes v6’s have dual exhaust…just not the 95 and earlier 3.4’s. the 95.5 and up v6’s had the option of the dual. i think i’d know since my white v6 has duals. edit: also the forumla’s could have 16 inch wheels as could the v6’s. my v6 was stock rollin on 16’s as were many of the t/a’s. ---

Actually, the V6 does have dual tip exhaust and comes with body molding. The spoiler is not raised though, and does not come ram air option. ---

Most of the info is right here… The T/As are easy to spot with the different front/rear bumpers, and typically raised rear spoiler. The Formula’s are a little harder to spot if they don’t have the WS6 package; then it’s typically only the badging and dual exit exhaust. Both the T/A and Formula’s have V8s. ---
