it would be way to similar though, and the t/a was always the luxury version of the camaro, with all of GM's add-ons now, they would be the same luxuriousness. also, it wouldnt just be 2 cars, they will be also competing with the vette and the GTO thats s'pose to come back out again.

but i do know what you are saying. also g5/cobalt/ion, sky/solstice, escalade and the denali are very similar, then thebase yukon and tahoeetc.. chevy has always been the performance end and the other GM's the luxurious/old man end.

then the T/A also, i dont hink anyway, never outsold camaro, and the camaro is in my opinion much more well known, whenever i talk to someone and see a f-body, i always have to refer to it as a camaro, they never know what a t/a or firebird is. only z28 or camaro[&:]

i think a T/A would be cool tho.

Yeah, same here. You usually come across the ignorent ****** tho that always assume every Camaro and Firebird owner is a redneck, makes me laugh tbh.

yup, it's horrble that society is import dominated, i mean i dont hate imports, theres some i like(but i hate it when they make a FWD car have more than 250/300HP...) but damn, least have a nice mixture of imports and domestics.

i have a feling the new camaro wont sell that good only because it's been hyped up to long, and because it'ss'pose to weigh like 4400 pounds. but every single older person will have one, cuz of the good 'ol days[8D]

I think you are closer to the ballpark than the 4,400 was. I think 3,500 might be a little low, but I can't see it being over 3,750 though I'd rather it be closer to 3,500.

i read somewhere that a fully loaded one could weigh up to 4400, i kinda doubt it too, but isnt the GTO like 3900?

That one on the left looks a lot like the Mercedes SLR, take the pics and put themside by side and compare u'll notice a lot in common, But i haveto say i love the one on the right, i really hope they come out with that, Much better then what chevy is doing with the 09 Camaro,I think that thing is UGLY

I like the rear of the one on the right, but I think that the Front is too retro... Something more modern for me... I like hte new camaro just fine... They could only make that one as far as I am concerned...

You know GM isn't going to bring back the T/A.
