Hi,

Someone on GMInsidenews told me I should post this here.

I just started a new job and there are some auto companies right around where I work. This car was unloaded out of some big truck really early. When I left my place a little later the cover had blown off the front!







Ran over and got a few quick pics. I tried to zoom in on the car more but then it looked pretty bad for some reason...my camera kinda sucks :-p

Thanks for posting these! I added to the description a bit, there is a similar thread title elsewhere about an entirely different subject.

It might be a camaro but the center makes it look more like a new firebird concept or a possible z28.

No problem...I always see the spy pics online, so it was really cool to see one in person for once!

As much as we'd like to see it rising from the ashes, we all know that won't be happening for some time. Z28 or another variant, definitely.

We have a winner!

Z284ever

Looks like one of the "Trans Am" replicas afew people are developing.

^^^I agree

That’s neither a Z28 nor a Firebird; it’s an aftermarket company designing the new front clip to make it look like a Firebird. The cover conveniently just happen to be off the front of the car where it look different and the rest of it is the same as a 2010 Camaro even the rear wheel is a Camaro wheel. GM has absolutely no plans on building the Firebird and that’s from GM designers, no prototypes or any drawings have even begun. Pontiac is being dropped by GM same as Hummer and Saturn. GM is cutting it’s looses and moving on. Hummer will be sold in a few weeks to some China company; Saturn will go somewhere in Germany and Pontiac to GM’s Australian Holden division where G8’s and GTO’s are more popular.

I think it's an aftermarket company's attempt at making a Firebird. Either that, or GM really cammo'ed it up to look like a Firebird.

What are the names of the auto companies that you speak of?

90 Z28SS

Complete with a functional looking shaker hood . Zoom the photos GM is either having fun with the camo on a Z28 or its just yet another Trans Am aftermarket car in development .

SSbaby

After market companies don't use camos and don't test cars in public for functionality of body add-ons.

That pic is an indication that somebody wants some message to get out - that uncover is just a tease.

Btw, that rear spoiler/wing looks huge.

HAZ-Matt

The Z28 is really going to look like a Firebird and be called Trans Am.

cam some1 photoshop it to get rid of the camo look?? does look like a bird, but they may just be hiding the front. go back and pull the cover off completely and take some up close pics

@ aftermarket using camo. When has an aftermarket company ever used camo to hide a design for a body panel?

Why wouldn't GM get a hold of one of those pieces for this mule? They have done other thing to try and cover up a test or distract you from what is really going on. Remember the C5 corvette wrapped in a camaro shell during testing?

The bulge in the hood has to make room for that LSA somehow
