If it looks good, and is an actual driveable car, and not just a sports car or a mini-vette, it will sell a lot. The V6 sales is what matters here. I dont think that GM is losing out tons upon tons of money in not having a Camaro to steal sales from teh stang. I think Chevy needs a new rwd coupe, but it needs to feel good. If any of you have sat in a new GTO, that is around the right hight for a Camaro. Its higher then the last 2 gens, but lower then a sedan. Its easy getting in and out, and feels more like a daily driver kind of car then an all-out sports car.
Also, I dont think that the Camaro V8 models should be able to be obtained by anyone under 20 years of age. When mommy and daddy get thier kid a new 385hp Camaro, hes gunna wrap it around a pole. I think making the V6 cars appeal to the kids, and suck them into the Camaro name, they will want the feel of a V8 soon, and they will trade the car. Find any V6 camaro or firebird and ask them would they upgrade to a V8 model, and I bet you will be hard pressed to find someone that would be set on the V6. Getting kids into V6 cars and having options to customize it will attract on-the-fence kids that dont want an import, but want something that is there own. after 3-4 years, they will be older and understand what goes along with a V8 car, and they will get one. The V6 model needs to be very attractive and be able to keep up with the best out there for the price, so thats SRT4's, V6 mustangs, along with RX8's. GM can do it, they have the tools, lets make it happen.
