The idea is good, but wasn't executed well enough. The hood graphic looks too cartoonish, and the rear of the car is just a mess. As much as I am a fan of Trans Ams, these aftermarket kit cars will never be one. They are just Camaros, which is why I don't understand those spectators cheering in the video...if they are Trans Am owners/fans they should know that. Maybe something officially licensed by GM for the aftermarket, or perhaps designed by GM designers would be more legit. But I'm happy with mine and if I want another, I'll go out and buy one.

i like it. needs a little more tlc in the design department, but I like where this is going.

doesnt look that bad, i'd drive that

every trans am owner also understands that their birds really are just camaro's with body kits :nod:





by the way....it can really be called a trans am because gm doesnt own the name. all the bodykit company has to do is pay royalties per kit for the name and bam TRANS AM

it looks fine. not really different

The new Camaro's look awesome, that looks like $h!t. The 5th gen is aimed at looking like a 1st gen that these people tried making into a 2nd gen, WTF! Tell them to stop ruining cars!

EDIT: Better looking bodies. ;) Nothing like driving around a fish!


I kind of like that design.

Wow the rear of that "Thing" looks horrible.

Will they sell you that thing if you don't have a Mullet?

I like it.

I would take it. I like the front a lot more than the camaro...idk what it is exactly. Nice car overall

:werd:

Think its a lame attempt to mullet out a 5th gen camaro w/ 3rd gen ta parts.

What does a 3rdgen have to do with this :confused:

if they are going to do it it needs to be 100% rebodied not just bits and pieces....its complete **** and drags the trans am's name in the dirt IMO

now if they stripped the car and rebuilt it, then id give it a shot

LOL, you act like the TA or firebird has been a different car, but no, it was always a rebadged Camaro...especially the 3rd & 4th gens.

4th gens are rebadged? are you serious?

what are you on?

re-bodied, the cars are identical in everything but appearance

Different panels and badges are the only thing birds had then. What are YOU on?

When they had Pontiac engines, they were different cars. For example, you couldn't get a Ram Air IV on a '69 Camaro, or a 455 SD on a '74 Camaro, which BTW the Trans Am was the fastest American-production car that year. The first Chevy engine didn't show up in a Firebird until 1980, but even then you could still get the 301. Yes, they shared the same framework and structure. But for the better part of two generations, they weren't just re-badged Camaros.

those the good firebirds :nod:

455 sd ftw.

front and side isn't bad. wheels are cool. rear is ****

not bad i kinda like it

Golden Honeycomb Wheels are the ssshhheeett :mrgreen:

Nice crowd reaction, but once I saw the rear it was :barf:. The wheels are really sharp, the air vents in the front fender were done right, but the old style hood scoop really dated it. Maybe the 1982-92 Formula hood would have looked more modern, but the front grill still looked like a Camaro. OK effort that I would def drive, but it has a love it or hate look to it. :shrug:
