For those who haven't heard, No Fbird/Camaro after 2002 - Offical Press Release!
Check it out! It only says Hiatus... which leaves hope for a future Camaro, Firebird, both, or a combo of the two. Hopefully no FWD!

Oh yeah... just my .02, I'll be buying an early 90's model Mustang GT myself.... why just own the best of one world when you can own the best of TWO worlds?
On the subject of vettes... the NEW, yet to be released, ZO6 vette is a 10 sec car stock and will spank a Viper GTS ... never before done by a vette ... in professional tests anyhow, I'm not talkin' street racing. Hmmm.... lemme see.... 400HP 8 cylinder vette whoopin' up on a 550+Hp 10 cylinder Viper GTS for about $30-40,000 less... I think I can handle that!
