That's just a camaro with a few changed body parts. Saw it in a mag. Last year. Can't remember the company that does the conversion though. I do like it better then the camaro, and that will be the only time you here me liking a firebird more then the camaro

Re: Concept Firebird !

I like the over-all poster and thought it would make a nice background.Most of you know "allot" more about Firebirds than I do,so it was a shot in the dark. Thought it was kind of cool with it saying something about a Phoenix being a Firebird that's born again,etc.

Re: Concept Firebird !

How do you like this one?

Late second gen firebirds look better than late second gen camaros IMO.

I like it better than the new Camaro, but I also don't like the new Camaro all that much. The body lines are too high and the overall car looks too bulky. Camaros are suppose to be low to the ground and slim looking to me, not big and bulky.
