Then Firebird and Pontiac died and Camaro took a lengthy vacation and came back on a completely different platform, so "F-body" just felt wrong. Most other vehicles in the portfolio are referred to as 1st Gen this or 2nd Gen that, so it is a logical step to define the Camaros by generation.


Makes sense. Thanks!
