The 4th gen Firehawks were too pricey new I agree, but you did get more than a hood...2002 base package offered the high flow induction system for a total of 345hp compared to 325 in the WS6 and a better flowing exhaust, and the optional package offered the Bilstein shocks and Auburn differential.

I wouldn't say the 4th gen Hawks were groundbreaking like the '92, but you still got a bump in performance. And anything said about the Firehawk then could be said about the Camaro SS of the same years.
