I believe it'll be the LS6 or some derivative.

I was thinking with the new CAFE standards GM won't be able to afford three cars that get below the required standard. So with the postponement of the GTO you can guarantee there will be no firebird.

Looks like the pickup will be official at the NY Auto Show which sucks because I won't get to see it when I go to the Chicago Auto Show next month. NY Show is in March frown

The grand prix is the G8. Name change is due to the new goodies inside and new design......They could have at least kept the HUD!!!!

G8 is replacing both the GP and the Bonneville.
