I don't think it's that bad. If had cash to wipe my *** with, depending on what it looked like in person, I would do it.

the g8 is still going to be made, in the same plant as the camaro just like before, and just be sold to remaining buick and chevrolet dealerships, so says a top news source

^^^ pontiac will no longer be a brand, but a name tagged to certain cars such as the G8 and Solstice. If there is a demand for the Trans Am there should be no reason not to make it

i agree completely, the 2 doors aside, it shares as much in common with the camaro as your t/a to my car,
