I didn't say I was a bigger enthusiast than you,

Hey asshat, I never said you were anything. I asked you what makes OTHER people 10x more of an enthusiast then me?
I only used you in saying that you are crying because of what I said about 4th gens.
I never made a personal attack reguarding your faith as an fbody fan, unlike you made such an attack on me. So who's the douchebag?

I said THEY are 10x the enthusiast you are, because they recognize a bad idea when they hear one and stand up to it instead of sucking on GM's *** like you always do.

Oh, so let me get this straight.
By saying everything GM makes sucks makes that person a 10x more enthusiastic then me about cars?
I, in fact, do "stand up" to GM products. I spent 2 hrs with REAL ENTHUSIASTS in Indy talking to John Fitzpatrick, Cheryl Piltcher and Al Oppenhiser, the 5th gen's production and marketing managers about what I think is wrong with the car along with several other people.
I have ripped plent of times into GM with articles I have writen over at GMI.
Do I defend certain GM cars based on stupid and factless accusations? Yes I do.

They can never do wrong in your eyes, no matter how much they make a mochary of everything F-body. They could throw SS badges and Firehawk logo's on every econo-car known to man for all you care!

GM isnt throwing Firehawk badges or logos onto everything. SLP is. THIS is why Im "****-sucking" GM because you, the uninformed douche bag that you are, are blaiming GM again for something that is NOT GM's call.

1,000,000,000 posts and being a founding member of some web based forum means jack to me. It doesn't make you any better an enthusiast than any other person here. At least everyone else steps up when they see a stupid idea.

I never said that I am a "better enthusiast" then anyone here. I never claim to be the greatest Fbody fan ever. And I never said that putting the Firehawk name on a G8 is a good or bad idea. I just said I didnt care, because its SLP's name to do with what they want. If a bunch of Firehawk owners want to complain about it, so be it.
Calling a FWD coupe a Camaro is one thing, giving a supercharged 460hp+ RWD, performance sedan the name "Firehawk" is a different animal. If you want to bitch and complain that much, fine. But IMO...its not THAT big of a deal.

And instead of trying to understand why your fellow community members are upset you say "**** it, their car's dead anyway"?! Why? Beceause you're a jackass. regardless of anything, if either the Firebird or Camaro name came into question, we'd all stand up, because we're F-body guys. You? As long as it doesn't desecrate your precious Camaro **** it, right?

Why does it make me a jackass? Cause you got upset by yet another thing I said? Did I hurt your feelings?
If you were a TRUE fbody fan, you wouldnt have sold the 5th gen up the river because "it looks different from the concept" in which you seem to have a vision problem. You gave it no chance, you have seen, felt, or driven nothing to even give you a remote idea on the ability of this car, yet you seem to have all the answers. Yeah, you would stand up for the Fbodies alright...right into bad mouthing it.

To everyone else there's very little difference here between them using the Camaro name or the Firehawk name. Are you telling me if they put the Camaro name on a 4 door, even if it was RWD, you wouldn't be totally pissed?? Because I'll call ******** on that right now.

I would be pissed, but its not like the called the G8 "Firebird Trans Am Firehawk"
I had the same reaction when everyone cried about teh GTO's "lack of style".
It didnt lack style...it was very nice looking. What it lacked was reproduction 1967 body pannels. Still doesnt mean that it was a less of a car.

You are comparing, like everyone else, a company owned name that is going to be used on a product sold by another company.
Where people pissed that "Loud Mouth" exhausts were available for Mustangs and Chargers?

I will agree that teh Firehawk name is just odd to put on the G8. It doesnt mesh well. But if people are gunna have a hissy fit over a badge, and not base any sort of opinon on the car itself, then you might need to step away from the keyboard for a while.

Stop being an asshat. You keep calling me out in stupid threads cause I said your precious 4th gens werent pretty.
Get over it.
