|  2009 Trans-Am concept
I found this while surfing the net.I think it is beautiful,and makes me wonder how they can bring back the Camaro(which I love),but have no plans for something this sharp. http://www.highperformancepontiac.co..._concept_z.jpg |

For us guys who bought the 02 T/A, I hope they NEVER bring the T/A back. The Camaro was always a better seller anyway. It means alot to us to know we have the last one.

I dont think it is a matter of if,but a matter of when they bring it back.Whether it is 5,10,or even 15 years from now...I think we will hear from the firebird,trans-am nameplate again. | |

That's basically all the Trans Am began as. I think it looks amazing. I would start saving my pennies now if it was coming in the future.

I'm planning on buying a new camaro in 09 but if they were gonna release a trans am that looked like that a year or two later, I would wait for sure. I love trans ams, they always have looked better than camaros! Too bad and idiot ran into mine!

Just my opinion but I think that trans am chop is ugly as hell, it'd prob be the first trans am in a long time that's uglier than the camaro if they ever made one like that (but luckily, they won't). | |

Not a fan of this concept.
I don't like the retro design anyway. I think it's time has came and gone.
I hope they bring back the bird at some point but I hope it looks something like our 4th gens.
I think they are the one of most beautiful cars ever made. | |
