No...according to all reports, however, I would advise you to post this in the forum for Birds, directly below the 2010 Camaro forum.

simple to understand. Camaro sells good and the forecast in sales appears good Pontiac will wanna throw their hat in the ring. If retro seems short lived then you probably wont see a firebird. no one will know until 2010 at the earliest.

No, but it would be disgustingly easy for them to produce a new Firebird with the new Camaro. Pontiac is pretty much dead without that car.
