Hate to see it go - again, but remember GM is in business to make money and while they prob make some profit on the Camaro the impact on overall company profit is very likely dilutive from a percentage basis. So, coming from a 'beancounter', I'm surprised it lasted this long - simply because GM expects contribution margin percentage from a model they really don't invest in.... It's simple math, unfortunately.
