Default 2010 Firebird?

I think that other peoples attempts to turn the new camaro into a firebird are lame as **** mostly because they arent 1st gen. An Idea i had. Used ms paint. Could do more if i had some photoshop. What do you think?

not to be an ***, but many of the up to date T/A renderings i've seen look a lot better.... that just looks like a camaro with a pontiac logo and 2 hood scoops/inserts

give up. the Firebird is dead. Pontiac is dead. let them both rest in peace.

Your "photoshop" looks like a charger. Let her die man. The 4th gen Firebird is perfection.

The last Pontiac has already rolled off the assembly line... it was a G6 sedan that was ordered on a fleet order.

Well it looks as much like the camaro as the 67 bird looks like the 67 camaro. The lingenfelter one is ugly. doesnt look like a charger. and unfortunately gm is retarded and decided to keep a shitty brand like Oldsmobile instead of Pontiac.

not to be mean, but everyone needs to stop the crying. I have always been a pontiac fan, but it was evidence of GMs wasteful spending. Time to move on.

BTW not a fan of the rendering. as whats been said, it looks like a charger, but whats worse, it looks like the cheap v6 charger with the chrome grill.

It's disgusting looking. Why take a car that is clearly retro'd off a 1st gen, then try to not only make it a different model, but make it look like an entirely different generation?

The best T/A remodel of a 2010 Camaro would be to make it a 1st gen cued design. Obviously not happening, it just confuses me why Lingenfelter went that route.

All you did was change the headlights and hood?... Not sold..

But people who whine and say "get the **** over it, pontiac is dead"... i think we all know that. Isn't it cool to see what some people come up with for new designs?.. Does the word ART come to mind?
