i love kevin morgans work...but that is just something i would never, ever own..yes both cars shared the same chassis but they were different bodys... putting a shaker hood and a new grill on a camaro does NOT make it a T/A...JM2C

Completely agreed The G8 Failhawk; love the looks and power, hate the nameplate on a 4 door.

This car is equally as horrid. It's still a Camaro...

You should of seen what it was like to get new firehawk decals back in 1995 when my hawk was damaged by the dealer. I wasn't allowed to get them. Only the dealer that sold the hawk could only get them as long as they had the VIN number. I can't imagine what it's going to be like if I ever decide to repaint...

As for the "firehawk tribute," it just doesn't have the same feeling looking at it like when I saw a Firehawk for the first time on display at the Jacob Javits center in NY way back in 1993.

I saw SLP made a firehawk out of a G8? makes me want to PUKE! It's farking heresy!!

BECAUSE THERE IS NO FIREBIRD..so they use what they have. Sounds like what GM has been doing for..umm YEARS???

GM is not making them..at least someone is saying "what if" ...

And to those who said its just a body kit or emblems and badges..and not like the Camaro and birds in the past..Really???

Lets look..What is stock direct 2010 Camaro on this car..
Front clip...Changed
Hood.........Changed
Fenders.....Changed
Roof..........Changed
Decklid......Changed
Tailights....Changed
Bumper......Changed
Rims..........Changed
R. Fenders..Changed (the 3 slashes are not there)
Doors........STOCK...OMG..thats a lot of Camaro on the car.

Looks like this car was given the fine tooth comb and gone over as much as possible to turn it into a Pontiac.

Ohh the interior..yea looks stock..so what. This guys done a good job of imagining what GM could of done if Pontiac was still around. Stop flipping out on some guys hard work..yea its a Camaro what did you want him to use a Mustang?

I'm not a big fan of the production "Kevin Morgan" so-called "Trans Am's". There was A LOT lost in translation from design to reality.

I will admit that a lot of great work was done to make a different looking Camaro.
