SPY PHOTO: Another rendition of the return of the Pontiac Firebird

NO....MORE.....REBADGING....PLEASE!!!!!

You guys shouldn't be surprised by this. This is what they have been doing since the Camaro was born.

GM just needs to dump Pontiac altogether. As much as I hate to admit it I somewhat like the looks of the new Camaro/Firebird concepts.

GM really needs to get focused. They can't just kep rebadging things like that! What they need to do is get rid of that crap GTO and then build a new Firebird freom scratch! They can still make it look a bit like it's "sister" Camaro but they just need to stop the rebadging!

Ok, if GM wants to save money, they can just make it at least a LITTLE different!

At least Chyrsler has taken the time to fix there vehicles. They might be on the same platform, but They dont look alike! I mean look at the Chevrolet Tahoe/Cadillac Escalade/GMC Yukon! NOw that is what you call rebadging! SAME DAMN INTERIOR! just a little bit of mods on the engine!

the cars you mentioned all share chassis and engines, but contrary to your statement, none share sheet-metal of any kind.

The Imperial concept car is completely different to the 300c in terms of design, and the Challenger design is completely independent of the Charger saloon.

They share no visible exterior components. This is where Chrysler has their advantage.

Have another look:

Hope this clears things up.

To answer your question......No. I am not a fan of any of those cars. I don't really care for the 300C, and I think the Magnum/Charger is a waste of metal and plastic. But's that just my thoughts.

I do however like the Challenger concept. It's a fresh design and well needed for Dodge.

although its apparent that it cousin to the chevy camaro, it still like kinda like it.

You did not just tell me that Caliber looks like the Dodge Avenger CONCEPT!

Even if the Avenger looks like the Caliber who cares. Avenger Concept was a CONCEPT car. They made it more road like! Duh! I mean thats like saying the Nissan Pathfinder looks like the Nissan Dunehawk concept. Of course it looks like the Dunhawk Concept, because it's a concept and they changed the name. Same goes for Caliber!

I mean it's not like Hundai; copying every possible thing that has four wheels and moves!

Do you even know what rebadging is?

Rebadging is taking an identical car-mechanically and stylistically, and putting a putting a new badge on it.

I don't see what you are getting at. You say the Imperial looks similar to the 300c, so it is a rebadge.

So? It's called a family face. The entire BMW range looks similar, yet would you call them rebadged cars?

The fact is, all the aforementioned Chrysler models look different. they have different bodies and different interiors. Therefore, they are not rebadged cars.
