Why do I keep reading there was a new Firebird and the show???
 
"... Longoria, Garcelle Beauvais and Brooke Burke while the hot car models included Pontiac Solstice, Cadillac STS, Chevy Corvette Z06, Hummer H3, Pontiac Firebird. ... "

Just do a google search. What the hell? I know there isn't one, but why did so many different people include it in the line-up????

Here's one of many links:

Ok, I guess it was in reference to a 1969 Firebird they had there. What the hell? Why have a Firebird if there's no intentions of bringing it back???

Got me on that one but who knows but I don't see any hope for a Firebird from what I have been told all along

Not while the GTO is around.

Since Pontiac is moving towards more of a "semi-luxury" brand it makes sense since the GTO has a better connotaton with its name. Adverse to the Firebird which basically is mostly synonymous with rednecks (no offense to anyone).

Figure the GTO is probably gonna be an M3 fighter... just priced better.

i thought i read in either high performance pontiac or gm high tech performance that the GTO was going to be in its last year of production in 2006. Yeah! It might come back in 2008 though. They also said Pontiac was looking for a new rear-wheel drive V8...

Any idea why they are skipping a year or two? I know they only had a 3 year contract or something with the Holden GTO.

The current GTO platform is dead and then think Camaro release date;)

Let me go ahead and get this out of my system!

Die GTO! DIE! DIE! DIE! I hate the GTO!!! Curse Pontiac for ever selling that stinking pile of crap and curse anyone who purchased one of these abominations!!! I'll not buy another new Pontiac until this piece of putrid junk is dead and buried!

...now I feel better, can you tell I'm a disgruntled Firebird fan? ;)

Haha, but the Monaro-GTO was practically the best Pontiac ever made.

TA76, why don't you tell us how you REALLY feel? :D

I agree, sorta. No offense to the GTO guys, the car IS pretty fast, just would have been cool to have a Firebird rendition of the new car.

I dont think the firebird could be based on the design of the new camaro. It would look like the 99 GTO
