Logically speaking, if GM does take out the Camaro from their line-up it will leave a massive hole on Chevy as a whole for the time being. We always had the Camaro and the Corvette they were and still are great cars, but now since the C8 is mid-engine shouldn't they now focus on their only front engine V8 coupe that they have left? The C8 will out-beat the Mustang and Challenger obviously, but then again Ford and Dodge have the GT and the Demon. They should keep the Camaro and re-define it as Chevy's new front-engine muscle car. Thinking about it now a new Camaro in the next 4-5 years is possible, the Alpha 2 platform is available for use in making the new Camaro and all they have to do now is make the body and tune the engine, which I think can peak around 490 HP for the SS. The way the car economy is going right now with all of the SUV s and Crossovers and such seems bad, but I feel like we're going to get over it eventually. A bunch of iconic cars are getting refreshed and renewed with new bodies and motors, and I feel if GM does not allow the production of a new Camaro then they will be left behind in the front engine department. The Mustang and the Challenger/Chargers in around 2 years will feel and look old compared to other car brands so if GM and Chevy pull through and begin production on a Camaro that could compete with non-American sports cars that'll be great. Just look at the Corvette C8 the Europeans must be crapping their pants by now

. honestly if they don't make a new Camaro they will be shooting themselves in the foot here.
