Responses like this are the reason Dave went to another source for feedback. Some folks can't be mature long enough to get good responses so why should he bother. I am not saying that they should use the Hawk name but I can see where he comes from by not coming here.

A good market analyst goes to many places for feedback, obviously this site as well as countless others were not consulted. Therefore the vast amount of negative feedback and other attacks on Dave and SLP are numerous and somewhat warranted.
As a member of this community I can express my opinions as I choose.

I don't see why they couldn't just make an SLP edition of the G8 and give it it's own name.
This would be like if Pontiac brought in a car that was made overseas and just slapped a badge on it and tried to pass it off as another car.

Maybe SLP will offer 1/2 the Firehawk package price back to original Firehawk buyers. (First hand buyers, not second, third, etc.)

I'm sure you already know this, but I'm again, trying to be as clear as possible for anyone who thinks they want to be funny and make a retarded post.

Comments are getting deleted because people are being straight up dumb-***** with their replies. I have asked repeatedly to be civil and so have the admins and other staff members.

I just saw the link... You can't put the Firehawk name to the G8!!!! It would be a disgrace, honestly. I haven't been able to read the entire post yet but from what I have seen nobody has mentioned to follow what BUICK (of all brands) did. There is a reason why we are not seeing current Grand Nationals running around. At least Buick would be using the same base model of a Regal. Maybe GM is losing it with names...Buick LaCrosse GNX...come on...
Let it rest with the Firebirds...

i dont own a firehawk, but ever since i purchased my 99 TA the ONLY aftermarket parts i ever put on my car were SLP. SLP long tubes (overpriced) SLP y pipe, SLP Flo-Pac, SLP loundmouth (sounds like ***). The point is i purchased these parts because i felt that SLP was a guinuine brand that actually cared about the cars that they are part of, and the customers who made them what they are. well no more, i will not purchase one more part from them, as well i will be removing the SLP logo from my engine bay and removing my SLP plate frame. +1 loyal customer lost, thanks SLP

Oh Good got your attention...
I agree with the FireHawk nomenclature only belonging to the Firebird.
The progression of the Firebird model moving into the Firehawk makes perfect sense!
So far everyone has only made comments with out many solutions.
Not that SLP will listen but here is my thought.
The Solution...
The G8 Monster.
Sophisticated 400HP - 500HP probably need black out the emblems anyway...
But one gets the point.

I just think it sounds good and definitely spells out performance...
