Pontiac finally going to drop the Firebird and Camero?
I really hope so, cause looking head on I can't tell if its, a Camero, Firebird, or C5 :lolg: I like C5's but to me they look like Pontiac's from the front, until you get close of course. If it wasn't for the Corvette badge on the C5, I'd be thinking its another Pontiac. :smash:

Did they ever give a reason for why they were stopping production and what are the trailer park boys supposed to buy now?

They quit making them last year, 2002 was the final year.

actually they stopped making them around the end of 2001... they phased them out color by color.

I had a 75 Camaro and a 96 Z28. Great cars. Really hope they'll come back in V8/rear wheel drive form.
And it's spelled Cam a ro, not Camero! :rolleyes:

I cut my teeth on F-Bodies...69 Camaro, 95 Z28, 96 WS6, 98 Camaro SS...great cars, sorry to see em go. I betcha GM watches sales of the GTO closely and rebadges it as a Camaro if sales prove out.

They'll probably be re-introduced as front wheel drive psuedo rice-rockets in 2005 or 2006. What a friggen shame! Right now in the US if you want a rear wheel drive, domestic perfomance car you have very few choices. Corvette, Viper, Mustang, GTO(from Austrailia.) Did I miss any?
I think F*rd and Mercury are selling a rear wheel drive sedan for the police market, but other than that it is pretty bleak!

No one ever made a Camero but Chevy made a Camaro

Re: Pontiac finally going to drop the Firebird and Camero? (LAvetteman)
I didn't really read through all the posts here so I dont know if anyone already mentioned this, but I heard that they were stopped because the production numbers were getting so high and the values were dropping. I could be wrong though.
