Correct. Camaro and Firebird were put on hiatus, and then Firebird was dead, but Camaro stayed in limbo.
For the longest time, GM could not use the word Camaro when talking about any future product, or the CAW would want to know why. After the agreement to the CAW was over reguarding both cars, it was deemed that the Camaro came could start to circulate again. That was mid 2005. By late 2005, spy shots of Camaro "clown" clay models hit the internet, fueling rumors.
There wont be a Firebird at all, ever.
Pontiac is dead. I keep saying this, but it doesnt get through.
The next gen G6 will be a rebadged next gen Malibu
Pontiac will also get a rebadged Cruze to replace G5
The G8 will run its course till the next gen, and then no more imports to America.
Solstice and Sky's Kappa platform will end sometime in 2012 with no next generation platform planned.
By 2012, dealers will be told that Pontiac is dead, and by 2014, it will stop selling cars.
Saturn could take up the slack by moving into the PBG dealers that have now been formed over the past few years.
