GM always takes two years to fix things in a model, 2012 will fix things from 2010 (and 2011), Remember the 2004 Impala SS, 2006 was perfect, and they cancelled it soon after.
Camaro will improve over time and go on different platforms, at least we probably will not have what Ford did with the Mustang years ago when they put it on the MaveriK(?) frame.
I would love to have a 2.0l turbo with DSG 6 spd. transmission like VW and Audi have, lighter weight and maybe 2.5l turbo. Had a 2007 VW EOS and older Passat with that engine and with EOS got 35+ mpg on highway and good performance, of course I must add that the EOS was sold to my son to buy the Camaro.
Final point, we have to change things in Washington, MPG keeps going up, no-one wants the small cars, we will not be able to buy Camaro's in the future, if we would drill for our own oil, we would have plenty, just like natural gas seems to be found in the Eastern states, now no shortage.
