if they kept the front end looking like the first gen instead of the second, it would fit better with the new camaro to the true retro design

Car looks like ****. It's a Camaro with a body kit. Bad decision for the company to make it. Yes, people like seeing a "Trans Am" but nobody will buy it and it will end up like the Tojan.

I love it. I think it looks great, but only because it shared 90% of its body design from Camaro.
The front and rear of the car look great. GM couldnt have done better if things were different.

Al your smoking crack that cars ugly as sin in the front! If ASc makes it it WILL become the modern day tojan!
They need to rework the front end alot maybe even include different wheels with it instead of just slapping a wack body kit on a maro.

Tojan isnt a bad looking car either. Its very 80's, and thats whats great about it.
I think the car looks very good. I dont agree with the 2nd gen front with first gen body, but overall its a good looking car.

I think later 2nd gen 'bird styling fits the new camaro body lines better than the early styling they used:
Something like this...

either way the 5th gen has elements of all the generations mixed into one. i can say the same for the new kit. if gm teams up with them and actually offers this as a dealer installed item i might really be willing to think about trading in the saturn

What do a 300c and a Bentley have to do with a Firebird body kit for the new Camaro?
