Just got the January 20 issue of AutoWeek and there's a quote of Bob Lutz on the back page. It reads:

"Lutz was later asked if there was any hope of resurrecting the Camaro and Firebird. "Maybe after a 30-year nap," he said.

I'll be too old to drive!

Well that's depressing.

DaxsZ28

Did he really say that? That sux.

Z28Wilson

I would think he's just being sarcastic.

By that time, I'll be able to buy one entirely with my GM card points, cause I'm not buying anthing else from GM till then.

All i gotta say is "eff GM" I really cant see myself buying a new car from them any time soon. They have nothing that interests me thats in my price range. They dont even have a decent compact car. My next new car will probably either be a Mustang or a import.

i have a feeling dodge is going to get real big real fast, they were always the ones with high torque produce vehicles

i hate GM
why do they say crap like that
quit beating around the bush send out a press release and just let it out what is really going on if it is nothing or if there is something so we can quit waiting and buy something else from someone else

Dammit, beat me to it. Oh Well, I'll leave my post. It seems to have effected me a bit differently.

Talk about pissed after I read that quote...****!
HAHAHA crack jokes, then watch brand loyalty fall to sh*t.

.....this sounds like a guy who got his hand spanked for his earlier comments........and he REALLY wants you to ask about the new cars he can talk about..........haven't you said something off the cuff to divert attention away from a subject that could get you canned?

There ain't no way in H E L L that it'll be even 10 years, but more like less than 5..........

Ya'll need to relax a little...........

Z28Wilson

I don't mean to tell you how you should feel. I don't have that right, but I think it's kind of silly to get so worked up over this. Personally I took no offense to it. We all know by now that nothing Camaro and Firebird will be discussed at this point and not for a while, and apparently for good reasons. So what's the surprise? If he would've simply said "no comment" we'd be here analyzing the 2,784 possible hidden meanings behind that statement. Sheesh.

There was at least 2784 different things he could have said that wouldn't have been so d*ckheaded.
He could have at least said something like "we will make the next Camaro when we think the time is right"

luis nunez

True... that was a very wrong comment......
GM themselves are cutting their legs

phantasm99

I agree with Doug, however I also think his phraseology was a bit off!!!

What he said!!

centric

Okay. Corporate politics really need to end. NOW.

It's not like they're hiding some scientific advancement that will win them the Nobel Prize. It's not like they're great statesmen. It's a simple announcement--we WILL do this car, we WON'T do this car. Stop playing. Stop hiding. Tell us once and for all.

My wife is already signed up on the waiting list for a 2005 Mustang.

I will be picking up a 2004 Viper.

If they don't screw up the Solstice, I'll get one of those. If the C6 doesn't have too many Aztek genes, I'll get one of those. Until then, there's nothing worth talking about.

Anyone at GM listening?
