actually he's right about non V8 sales of the 4thgen.
as these issues are endlessly debated here one thing that is just not brought up is that sales of sports coupes are just not there anymore. it's not like people are not buying Camaro's for something else. where are the japanese sports coupes? No,i'm not talking about the Supra or the Z car, those are more expensive. The Eclipse is gone, the Integra is a 4 door.
Sales of the Camaro, Mustang and big fat slob challenger are down about 50,000 units from a decade ago. There was never going to be room for 3 cars in this segment (and i will continually argue the challenger is not what the camaro and mustang is , although it's buyers are probably oblivious to it)
Better marketing should have been done, (and hatchet job on the styling in 2019 should not have) , but tens of thousands of buyers still wouldn not have beem created.
