Just wondering if the Fbody concept has taken on any Pontiac influences since the Trans Am generally looks more physically appealing than the Camaro... this isn't a debate, the TA looks better at least with the 4th Gens.

you're right, it's not a debate, it's an opinion. and you know what they say about opinions


everyone has one and they all stink

It would be cool if an option group was called "Trans Am" and included seat bolster inflators and a sport/cruising suspension switch among other things.

that they are usually right!

dont worry there are companys with body parts working on a trans am style if the camaro even makes it

I thought about something like that a good bit ago... although I was thinking the option would give you a 'bodykit' or so it make it looks trans-amy.

Same car (just like f-bodies always were), with just little changers here and there.

I hate to pry it open, but the Firebird/TA stopped looking better when the 4th gen came around (minus the WS6 variants). Bulbacious end, need I say more?

I'm really hoping for a Firebird body kit though. Maybe one to set the clock back in the right direction?

you need stabbed.

Nah. Trans Am was just an option package on Firebirds, (even though I refuse to call my car a firebird ) It wouldn't kill me if it were an option package on Camaros, but I highly doubt that would happen.

Not trying to start a fight here or anything, but I have never understood this point of view, and I have heard it from MANY T/A owners. A Trans Am IS a Firebird. What's so wrong with that? Why is it a bad thing to have a Firebird? If an SS owner ever said "I refuse to call my car a Camaro", it would be idiotic. So would a Z06 owner who "refused to call his car a Vette." Like I said, I'm not trying to flame or start anything, but I don't get it. It seems silly and arrogant to me.

Sorry to hijack here, but that's always kinda bugged me.

I call my Camaro the "Z", but I don't take offense to the Camaro name.... I've gotten into so many arguments with people that think a Trans Am is not a Firebird it's insane.

TrackMagicWS6

suppose the Camaro never came back and they decided to make a Firebird Z/28? its ****ing retarded.

MasterEvilAce

More people know what a Trans-Am is than a Firebird, I bet. If you say Trans-Am, of course you mean it's a Firebird.. it's just the Trans-Am package, which is better.

Some people say they have a Z06, or an SRT-4.. of course they mean Corvette and Dodge Neon. It's just quicker to say, and it's more specific.

jah1542

Yes, but there's a difference between simply referring to it by a short name (totally understandable) and saying "I refuse to call it a Firebird." I call my car "my Z" all the time because it's quick and easy. But I would never refuse to call it a Camaro. Because that's what it is.

I think pontiac should make a new more agressive looking firebird/trans am and remake the gto to be somewhat retro.

MasterEvilAce

hmm... Understood.
