Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!
If you have any problems with the registration process or your account login, please contact us!
nascarnate326 wow you sound like you know what your talking about, do you like work for Pontiac or something? cause thats all imaginable
No, I work for Grand Valley but I visit GMInsidenews, Autoblog, and jalplink enough to understand that its all quite possible. If GM doesnt do something with pontiac, that sells well people are going to think of it as the GGGGEEEEEEEE 4 door brand.
Thats one reason why sale numbers have been low and why gm decided to put all its eggs in this basket
But if GM isn't careful they will get all there eggs scrambled in one shot.
I have seen some seet renderings of what people think the new Firebird should look like.
I just sucks that the goverment has to control everything

The US gov really needs to back off. I would rather them not bring back the bird because they'll probably just ruin it. The last 4th gen birds where sexy looking so let them die in style.
I know, but all this G-string nomenclature is driving me nuts!
I agree. It wouldnt make me so mad if everything was in the same format but when Solstice, and Vibe get to keep their names and Grand Am and Grand Prix get translated into G6/G8 it just doesnt right.
1. Chrysler has FINALLY realized that it cannot continue to compete against itself (i.e. Compass, Patriot, Caliber) and be successful. The Cuda would directly compete against the Challenger, and new owner Cerebus won't allow that to happen.
2. They'd have to reinvent the Plymouth nameplate...also unlikely.
Now a 2012 Challenger vert when the redesign comes in for LX...now you're cookin' with gas...

im really getting annoyed, all these companies blaming not having certain cars because of regulations that need to take place by 2020, ok.. we are in 2008 right now. They can come up with some efficient cars to put out when they have to in 2020 but why do they all feel they need to scale back TODAY in 2008, last i checked that is 12 years away yet..
The 35mpg law is effective in 2020, BUT, they have to slowly improve their numbers to that BEFORE 2020. I don't know if all the details have been ironed out yet, but they know they will have to increase MPG more than what it is now before 2020 and then meet the 35mpg in 2020. Product development takes a LONG time and especially when it's a difficult to meet demand, they can't waste time and resources making interim cars that won't meet the new regulations.

Getgone is absolutely correct, and that 35mpg has to be an average of all the automakers cars, so it's hard when gm has the trucks, and vans, and the camaro in the mix, i mean yes they'll probally have cars like the volt that help out with the average. Billions of dollars go into finding new ways of fuel injection and fuel atomization just to get a couple more miles per gallon out of a system. So it's better they start now,so that maybe in 5-10 years they'l figure out how to make a v-8 get 40 miles to the gallon, and then we'll all get to have the cars we want again

I'm personally getting sick of everybody coming out with this old style new gen. sports cars. Where's the imagination? They're so out of idea's that everybody's doing the same thing. Come up with something new or don't make it. If I want a camaro that looks like a 69, I'll buy a 69. I'm glad they're not remaking the Trans Am. It'll be just like everything else...oversized, overpriced.... I love my car and wouldn't trade it. You can't improve on perfection.

X 2 Bro Im with you on that one. Plus it'll make my 4th gen worth more in the long run. And it's a 96 so it's one of the last years they made the lt1 motor in it. WOOT!!!! And I bet theyd make it look horrible like what they did with the maro
