Camaro gets a refresh after 1year.

UNKNOWN_370

I realize what the dilemma of making a 7th gen camaro is now that the C8 is here.

Camaros for the most part have been 90% vettes with backseats. The C7 and camaro 6 got even closer in performance in this past generation.

NOW... the corvette is soooooo good. There's no way in HELL. That a camaro will be 90% of a corvette. And I'm sure they will NOT try to make a 4seat mid engine like a Lotus evora. I'm sure the vette is a subsidized car to have put it out like this. Theres no profit in the vette. They're probably taking a loss hoping that bread n butter
Sales make up for corvette losses that was created for bragging rights.

Also they know that building a Camaro they'd have to make an LT3 for FR use and offer a DCT for FR use as well. They probably dont have the budget.

Then they would have to make a Camaro 7 with at least corvette grand sport performance to make up for the lack of that 90% vette reputation. That would be the minimum performance requirement to make the camaro be what its rep has been.

Sales of the camaro is not going in the direction needed to make that good of a car. Especially now the camaro interior quality would have to bump up etc... just to sell. Making a ZL1 that costs more than a base vette but is still slower than a base vette is a huge dilemma. The camaro name has to drop till they can figure out a new identity for the camaro. The vette is just too much car for the camaro to exist.
