'09 - '10 Firebird and GTO Fate Confirmed
The magazine had a telephone conversation with Pontiac Communications Manager Jim Hopson. He states that as of now there will not be a new Firebird or GTO in the development plans for at least two years. He contends that anything beyond two years is not set in stone.
The G8 seems to be the RWD performance Pontiac for now. The question is: Can the V-8 RWD G8 appease Pontiac fans pining for a Firebird or GTO? Only time and sales figures will tell.
Information in this article was written by Thomas A. DeMauro. If you would like to read it in it's entirety, go to High Performance Pontiac magazine dated July 2008.
