> While Classic Design Concepts (CDC) deliberately avoids the use of the word ‘Pontiac’, the first thought that comes to mind upon seeing the FireBreather is a modern iteration of General Motor’s Firebird Trans-Am pony car.

> The 2011 Camaro-based special was originally created as a one-off movie car for Exxodus Pictures’ new sci-fi flick, Jinn, but the company decided to build a limited series for sale. And now, the order book has opened with the maker planning to manufacturer a total of 50 exact replicas of the FireBreather, priced at $60,000 a piece.

> Along with a completely redone body and re-trimmed interior, the FireBreather also gets supercharged version of the Camaro’s 6.2-liter V8 with 599-horsepower plus numerous other goodies such as 275/40 ZR20 Pirellu P-Zero Rosso tires and an Eibach Pro-Plus Performance handling package.

Why does it have to bulge so far in the front?

front end reminds me of a trans am.

id almost think with the name of firebreather it would have more than 599hp, which is probably a flywheel rating so its really just a lil about 500whp
