New Firebird Rumor....... I really didn't think it would be back, atleast for a while after the Camaro but here is the latest rumor courtesy of autospies.com........
Sources tell the Spies that big news could be coming out of GM very soon about the impending confirmation of the Camaro becoming a reality.
So what's new about that?
Not much, but that's not the scoop.
The Spies have learned when they do announce it will be built, they will also mention the return of the Firebird and Trans AM will not be far behind the Camaro.

It's possible , the GTO really hasn't had impressive sales numbers so maybe the'Bird will be back.The GTO is a great car but really hasn't grabbed the public's attention like the lone RWD V8 coupe in Pontiac's lineup should have.

I see history repeating also, too many performance cars competing against each other. It would also cause poor sales figures for each of the cars and budget cut backs ect. GM needs to focus on competing against its competitors, not its self. I think the Camaro would have far out sold the Mustang in the past if it werent for four other performance cars in the GM line up. Im not at all saying we should only have the Camaro, just that the market isnt there for several performance cars like the 60s.

I hope the BIG SHOTS at GM read this !!!
1. Come out swinging hard, DESTORY THE COMPITITION , offer ((( LS7)))
2. Let the buyer pick the options they want. EXAMPLE - If I want a
Trans am, DON'T force me to buy a Firebird if I DON'T want T-TOPS.
3. $$$$ Try to keep price REASONABLE.

If GM does this they are retarded. Make a new performance Pontiac, a 3-Series competitor. This is so stupid. Why would you compete with yourself??? All sorts of money will be wasted on this duplication of efforts.
