Better performance does not promise better sales. As I've been saying all along..to the average, non enthusiast buyer..a multi thousand dollar difference matters.
Statistics, performance and raw performance enthusiasts will know exactly how the two stack up and will see the Camaro is much, m uch better out of the box. However John and Jane Public who just want a good looking V8 coupe, but aren't going to track it, or race it, or hot rod it may not be able to justify a large price gap.

Exactly what I been saying cost is what's holding me up I will not be tracking it will not be racing it at every stop light or at the track jus want a good looking sport car. Sales will be down GM made this car to track ready thinking the average buyers will want to pay the money for stuff they will never use.
