A little history lesson!
To get the Firebird into production, Pontiac shared not just the basic structure of the Camaro, but most of the sheetmetal, as well. The front fenders and door skins of the 1967 Firebird were Camaro pieces, and the rear quarters were Camaro parts with simulated vents stamped in. But with its split front grille, beaked hood and slitted GTO-like taillights, the Firebird managed to evoke its own personality when it went on sale as both a coupe and convertible on February 23, 1967.
To make it a point to say this TA is nothing more than a modified Camaro is like sayin.....No Daaaaaaah
The birth of the Firebird and the Trans Am were based on the Camaro.
So what if this TA is basically a Camaro because the old Pontiac versions were too.
It only makes sense that a TA would be modeled after the Camaro.
Even though I like the 2010 Camaro better, I can appreciate the mods made to it to make it look like something that Pontiac might have come out with.
