Yup I'm gonna have to go with blueJ on this one.  And just to piggyback on what he said that looks more like a Trans Am to me.  :huh

Let me explain for you two::)

In the 60s/70s the Camaro/Firebird shared the same body shape. So since the GTO is getting scraped, and Pontiac don't have a frame, the new Firebird might share the Camaro base, add a sprinkle of retrostyling and "Voila".

As every pontiac enthousiast, I'm waiting for a firebird revival. Contrary to the popular opinion,  I don't like the new camaro, such project drawings generate some teeth grinding.

PFFFFFT..... so sorry looking!

They should have styled it after the '69 Camaro....


Chevy blew it with this!


Mac <--- Had a '68 350 and a '69 327 Camaro... blew up the 327 and dropped in a LT1 outta '78 Vette into my '69 Coupe... I smoked FireTurds and Novasses at the light.  G60 15's deep well ET's on the rear and runnin Cragers on the front. Had a Craig 8Track and tapes that would make you cry now.

Sold the '68 to a friend who rolled it 4 Months later... almost killed a woman.

While in Germany my Brother was hurtin on $$$ and decided to part my '69 out... Vulchers were all over it before I got word.  That was a wall between me and Rick for the longest time.  Drop kicked my Brothers asss when I returned...Now I just wish I had my Brother back.

Cars are kewl, but Family is better.

Yup...got a Pontiac instead of a Chevy badge too.
Political correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

AWMac, u don't get it do you?:rolleyes: I'm not saying it's a Camaro, I'm saying it's how the Firebird might look like if they share the Camaro's base, as historically GM was inclined to.

Frenchy, you 'll have to excuse them.  Try to avoid speaking German in the future.  They might get it then.  :D

I dont understand what theres not to understand...if that made sense.
