While I fully understand your point of view, I’ve learned it not worth stressing or getting mad about it. This is the world we live in..

Until this tide turns, if ever, my 2018 Camaro (that I factory ordered) will be my last vehicle from these "domestic" manufacturers, and especially General Motors.
Since then we've bought a Nissan and a Mazda instead, and of course I know losing these sales is peanuts to GM, but I'm done supporting their disgusting corporate attitude. The next truck we will probably need to buy will be a Toyota or a Nissan.
It feels like the 6th gen Camaro was an exception rather than the rule, the engineering team trying to go against the internal steamroller to somehow still get something remarkable done. Sure, the C8 is now their flagship and it certainly got even more latitude as an even bigger exception, but my previous point still stands.
