Default ASC Trans Am proposal

I know this may be a month or so old, but, I never saw it.

I dig the front end of the car, but not the back so much.

Funny. I'm exactly the opposite. I dig the back end, but not so much the front.

The Trans Am was always over the top except for the 4th gens . Not really my style but if it brings the T/A back then I am all for it.

The first pic looks good, after that, it's pretty much downhill.

Is it me, or does that design look very similar to a Mustang...? Especially from the top. Obviously the front is different.

Of particular note is the Publishers note stating that 80 percent of the write ins would do away with Pontiac. It doesn't state that the people writing in, don't buy American in the first place and have no business chimming in.

Putting our money in a Japanese or German workers pocket is a drain on our economy!

Thats a real bummer. Another Iconic American car Company is going down the tubes. Ive had more than one of every generation of Firebird, and liked them a little more than the equivalent Camaro. Thanks to the Government, the UAW, GM mgt, and the public a great American car company is going down. Long live Pontiac, drinks are in order.
