Many of you would already have heard about the return of the Chevy Camaro, and that seems to be getting other car makers juices going into pushes out some old favorites. One of these favorites is the Pontiac, although they have tried to bring this car out before it failed to warm the hearts of the Americans, unlike the much welcomed Ford Mustang.
It is hoped that a new Pontiac will hit the streets in 2010 but one question remains, and that is what they would badge the automobile under. They could call it a Firebird, or maybe they could call it a GTO.
The future sports coupe is expected to have a choice of two engines, one would be a 3.6-liter DOHC V-6 which pushes out 261-hp, but another could be a 6.0-liter V8 option. The new Pontiac is expected to have a choice of either a five or six-speed automatic gearbox.
So would you rather a GTO or Firebird?

FIREBIRD/TRANS AM all the way… Lets put The new Camaro and Mustang back in there place………………..
firebird has always been the real deal four me giving my opinion and what my buddy’s think it shod be firebird / trans am.
TRANS AM, BABY!
i’ve been waiting and wishing they’d come out with a new one… even though i like the older body styles better, and i love the GTO as well, but definitely the trans am/firebird
mustang baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Firebird all the way; i have owned one since i was first able to drive. 87, 94, 99 ,02 and have loved every one of them. also in the process of restoring my 1968 Pontiac Firebird 400 V8. these cars are nothing less than amazing. let em fly. Firebird all day.
FIREBIRD FOR SURE!
this is a great idea for a firebird but not gto plus it dose not look like a gto. Pontiac might want to look back at the styling of the older gto and base them on the new one.
the gtbird should be the name
Firebird GTO mix. Why not. two legends combined into one. New Concept, new Car. Call It the GTO Firebird. that’ll solve all of this.
firebird.
ford came out with a new mustang, chevy with their camaro, so just like back in the day, pontiac has to follow through with their firebird.
plus it looks more similar to the older style….and better then the competitors.
