I drove by a Chrysler store today. There were at least six Challengers out front. I wonder if Chrysler has made too much effort selling the Challenger as the rip roaring muscle car. If GM is going to sell enough Camaros they may already know that it has to be sold as a somewhat responsible "personal" car.

GM is already positioning the Camaro as a efficent sports car comparable to the best.. not a ripping muscle car.
