either way....
the way i see it is, the firehawk namesake was a top of the line firebird. a sick firebird (thirdgen models). a meaner bird. a hawk. a firehawk. it doesnt make sense to use the namesake on the g8.
they should keep the GTX badge alive from the grand prix since the g8 is more along the lines of a grand prix than a firebird.
say what you guys want about second gens. are people forgetting that second gens include one of the nicest looks in history. THE SPLIT BUMPER Z.
oh and i dont understand why 2nd gen owners and 4th gen owners dont get along. dont you guys both realize that the styling for the 4th gens come from two different cars...
lt1 styled after the thirdgens
ls1 styled after the split bumper 2nd gens
the bottom line is that its the same when the gto came out. its also the same with the new camaro. i got over the fact that the camaro is no longer an fbody. people will get over the fact that SLP is using the firehawk name.
the only way to get your point across to a company like this is to NOT BUY THE CAR. if you dont own it then you dont have a problem.
btw al is right though. slp already drug the hawk name through the mud with the lt1 style 'packages' and then once again with the ls1 packages. those were just flashy firebirds (as if the firebird wasnt already flashy enough).
long live the camaro
