Sounds pretty low....3802....I would think Mustang and maybe Challenger did better....

I don't think Camaro offered much off the sticker (no 20% off MSRP sales that I saw in December)....oh well....

That's pretty disappointing sales considering they had employee pricing for all for December on all 2017's , (which there are plenty still available out there), plus additional dealer flexcash.

A 45.7% drop vs December 2016 Camaro sales and a 20% decline vs Nov 2017 sales, is pretty awful no matter how look at it.

Yikes, that is pretty awful.

It's sad how poorly the gen 6 has sold since they listened to Camaro enthusiasts when designing it. It would be hard for them to do that again if this is the result.

I now understand a little better why my previous employer cared so little about the enthusiast market. It was understood how small that market truly is, but to see so much we value in conflict with what the average car buyer is looking for is eye-opening.

Agree 100%, the enthusiast market is a tough market. It's mid boggling sometimes.

Pretty low. Mustang sold about 7.7k. Not sure how much discounted 2017s and new 2018s helped out, but either way, Mustang typically sells more.
