I whole heartedly disagree. The second gen was very popular, but it was the seventies and emissions regulations absolutely gutted the power out of all muscle cars. Style aside, once engine controls allowed for finer tuning, power returned and so did demand. Anybody ever drive a 3rd gen with the 2.8? No excitement there, and even though I liked them, the 3rd and 4th gens were rattle traps that the engineers should have been embarrassed by. I've driven and worked on all the gens and the 5th is without question the best design, build, and performance in my mind. But as a kid, I'd have sold my family to own one of those second gen Camaros, any young man would have in those days. They, along with the Firebirds and Corvettes were the epitome of sports cars.
