Re: Are we going to get a T/A or Formula?
Well, GM has said that there will be no Firebird for a long time at best. I wouldn't expect to see one anytime soon...I wish they would bring it back though, but then again, how would they top the design of the '98-'02 TA's??? I'm not sure that would be possible...

Re: Are we going to get a T/A or Formula?
Well, with the retro Camaro comming out, it seems to make a better case for a modern Firebird to sell along side each other while not appearing to be "twins". I would definatly be all for that and by golly, it would make some sense too.

Re: Are we going to get a T/A or Formula?
Someone said something about there being two RWD/V8 coupes (not Sedan) at NAIAS? The Camaro and something else? Interesting.

While the smoothly curvaceous Challenger looked like it was simply reissued, though in a somewhat more modern size because of its Chrysler LX underpinnings, the Camaro concept had a more contemporary and angular appearance that looked cutting edge, and we mean that both literally and figuratively.

The easy guess to this, IMO, is the next gen GTO...

Re: Are we going to get a T/A or Formula?
I would say the odds of there being a new Firebird are about as good as me being a 5'2 korean woman.
Those aren't very good odds by the way.

Re: Are we going to get a T/A or Formula?
It could be possible. Alot of stuff has been happening in the auto world that people never really thought would. I woudn't dismiss the idea entirely.

Didn't Lutz say "we're working on it" the last time someone asked him about the Firebird?
