I have to go with GTO simply because it makes more sense in today's car market. You would have a G5, G6, G8, and a GTO. Make it a little more true to the older GTO in looks, but don't go too retro. Just make it more identifiable to the classic GTO enthusiasts. The last one was nice, but when people identify it as an oversized Cavalier, there's a styling problem. On the other side of the coin. Firebird has always been similar to yet different from the Camaro since 1967. Changing it too much would take away from what the Firebird truly is, a GM pony car with a just a little bit more muscle and luxury. Unfortunately in today's car market I think the Firebird would be a big failure unless they offered it as a higher end(meaning higher cost) muscle car over the Camaro, with all the luxury features, and a much more powerful motor. Then this would be stepping on Caddilac teritory. Firebird just isn't feasable anymore. A GTO would work out nicely if done right. Being a Trans Am owner, this saddens me a bit, but being a Pontiac enthusiast, I will be happy either way.
