GM offers a performance vehicle for just about every price point of consumers, and when you compare GM vehicles to their equal trim competition, you get way more value for your money with GM. The mustang is a great car, my past 3 cars were mustangs, but ford just doesn’t care about being competitive as they know the mustang will sell regardless, and the small demographic of enthusiasts will buy the car regardless of performing sub par to the competition due to brand loyalty as well as the history it has of being the original iconic pony car. And let’s not get started on the ridiculous mark ups dealers charge for ford halo cars.

Where is GM's option for the Fiesta ST, Focus ST, Focus RS? If GM cared about the smaller demo of performance enthusiasts I think they would have something for the hot hatch market. Where is the Raptor competitor?
GM clearly has the Pony car part nailed and the Vette. But other than that IMO they don't care about the enthusiast demographic as much
