I like it, except the front has to be tuned a little. The thickness of the grille and head light trim is excessive.

I love it, very different! Honestly it would deffinately have an identity all its own! It wouldnt even get confused for a camaro. Im not saying a better design cant be had, but i like it.

Would someone just give up on the deceased firebird. Let it rest in peace. Good grief ppl.

It is gone for good.

Maybe if some company could not **** it up and actually come out with a good solid concept I could see an attempt at bringing it back. All the concepts or ideas of a new Firebird/Trans Am either are totally butchered like this one or resemble the Camaro in some way and that kills it.

Long rest the Firebird and Pontiac.

You think those are good reasons NOT to do it? You know a lot of people actually will buy that. Think of how many dumb people buy special edition Mustangs.

The fact that Pontiac is gonna be gone is more incentive TO make this car.

I those are damn good reason not to do this.

A. WHo the **** wants an UGLY car.
B. ANYONE who would buy it and thinks they now have a 5th gen T/A is just ******* kidding themselves, especially with Pontiac now being defunct.

May Pontiac and the beloved Trans Am RIP.

The front and the rear seemed to be to emphasized, like someone else had said...cartoon like. Kind of reminds me of some of a hot wheel cars.
