    GM should do this and sell the car at Buick, GMC dealers. Its a real Trans Am and the cost is nill. Yes badge engineering, but on this who cares? Do 10000 ltd editions only and they'll sell everyone for $10k above invoice. NO DOUBT!

    Personally, I kinda doubt either GM, Chevrolet, or Pontiac are okay with this.

    Sure, it doesn't look that bad (I prefer the Camaro the way it is) and owners can modify their cars' appearance however they like, but isn't there an intellectual property issue here?

    I mean, GM wants Pontiac dead. They won't sell it to anyone. But they'll allow this? I dunno...

    If anyone can provide me with a scenario in which spending money on a body kit is a good way to spend money on your car, please let me know.

    @eggwich: Here's one: You've been rear-ended by a small car and pushed into the vehicle in front of you. Both your bumper covers are cracked. You don't have collision insurance, the guy behind you was uninsured, and the cheap-ass body kit is less expensive than a pair of new bumpers. Your car is already white.
    Yeah, that's one-in-a-million, but there it is.

    No T-tops?????? I don't care how much structural rigidity they lose, if they want to get the naughty bits tingling with a retro look you have to go the whole 9 yards. They should also have to submit to a VIN inspection so that no 6 cylinders can be converted. Instant revocation of man card, hat with mullet attached, and Natural Light purchasing become illegal for that person.

    Not bad at all - looks far better than the Camaro. I particularly like the '77-'78-influenced styling, but the single-headlight '70-'72 style works really well too. My only gripe (besides the butterscotch color) is that the '77-based cars should have rectangular lights like the original.
