Doubt Firebird will be back. Pontiac doesn't seem very interested, to say the least, and with the excitement division focusing on becomming an American BMW, I'd say a car like the Firebird doesn't fit in.

I think what Guion means is that there are things going on with the Camaro and nothing going on with the Firebird. Hopefully no Firebird means more money and options for the Camaro. I don't think there's a reason to make 2 cars that are almost the same anymore, especially because the Camaro is the seller/more popular. Maybe if the Camaro does good the Firebird can be added again. IMO Chevrolet is gonna have the fun, younger buyer, aggressive cars, while Pontiac will have the conservative looking (or boring 
) but pretty nicely styled cars that can still be some fun for more established buyers.
