You said that SO much better than I did, HAHAHA.

I saw something a while ago that speculated that GM was going to spin Corvette-off, kind-of on it's own. That would leave Camaro as the RWD performance car (i.e. also, affordable) for Chevy, perhaps opening up some performance potential that, maybe before, wasn't completely allowed to matriculate down from Corvette (because it was the RWD Chevy performance car). Maybe, with Corvette moving into supercar country (i.e. not as affordable, duh), Camaro could be elevated into 'Vette's old position, and gain some more backing. We see $70k-plus models now, so maybe, with 'Vette moving into more expensive waters, Camaro might start seeing models that get into RE and GT500-prices. That could open the door to more power and technology. C8 engines - Gen IV MRC, etc.
