Default 2009 SLP Firehawk "The Legend Lives On"

Just logged on to the SLP site and saw the Legend thats living on, an Firehawk which is now a supercharged G8 with a looks package. I think they should of put a differnt name on it. Personaly its like calling the rear wheel drive grand prix a GTO, its not at all what it used to be. Maybe just me but thats my rant. Check it out

Yeah, it doesn't make sense...

Firebird and Firehawk, sure
G8 and Firehawk.... ??? what the eff?

Then again the Firehawk was a product of SLP anyway, so its their right to call the new G8 whatever they want.

This has been almost beat to death 37 times already. SLP needs to make money, and it obviously won't be on a Firehawk Trans Am.
