Any buzz from the movie or impulse buying is going to be long gone by the time the Camaro is finally here. Too bad really.

I don't think GM had much of a choice in the particular cars that were chosen by the producers. The movie guys probably came to GM and said "What do have that looks like this?"
The Solstice is going to be the big sales winner out of all this. I bet there is a huge sales spkie in July. But, if this movie just gets people on GM sales lots looking for an H2, Topkick, or non-existent Camaro, maybe they will see something else they like and buy it. Kind of an inadvertent bait-and switch.
Also, the toys, video games, and models will be in full swing when the Camaro comes out. There won't be a lot of people out there who won't know about the Camaro.
