SEMA 2009: Pinkee's ignites lust for a Pontiac Firebird

Absolutely horrible. A perfectly good 1977 Firebird... ruined.

SEMA 2009: Breaker, breaker, we got ourselves a Bandit

YES! That's exactly what I keep saying when I see these.

It's a 1st gen retro body, put on a '67 - '68 Firebird nose and tail!

I personally like the 2nd and 3rd gens better, but grafting those onto this is SO STOOOOOOPID!

Cool! Thanks for explaining!

The Lingenfelter 455 T/A Concept really is badass

This is all yucky and out of proportion.

The new Camaro is retro to 1st gen, not 2nd gen. No matter how much you like 2nd gen better, trying to graft a 2nd gen F body nose on a 1st gen design just doesn't work.

They should have just designed a really nice '67-'68 Firebird kit for this. Would have gone nice with the new Camaro.

Instead they've alienated both the 1st and 2nd gen fans with this thing. They blew it.

Wow, I also just noticed the 4-wheel steering.

Wow the suspension on that thing is really impressive. Not just the scale of it, but how it works. The way the front end lifts up when he accelerates, and then when he comes to a stop the rear end goes way up and then GENTLY moves back down. It almost looks like he is controlling that from the drivers seat.

Also, it may just be the camera angle but it looks like he almost took out that parked Chevy truck just before he goes up on the curbs at the edge of the parking lot there.

Awesome. They should definitely bring this to the USA!

Agreed. But they should clean up the D pillar too.

rear suspension intrudes too much into cargo space

I just noticed... front tires: 145/65/15! Why so tiny?

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
