We can only hope it's true.

How many will they sell at that price ?

 

[Calaber]

Not many I suspect. That sort of money puts you amongst some real quality, if not the same performance. Given the usual US build quality, I think I'd be looking for a good used AMG or M5 for that money.

 

[Captain Courteous]

Yeah not a lot, it will be pretty exclusive. I reckon it will be like what the Nissan GTR is today in that you see them on the road like once or twice a month.
I totally get the point of buying a decent Euro for the same money. But if you ask me, I'd rather the Camaro.

Stick with the 30k cheaper Mustang.

 

[Immortality]

The reality is it will need to be priced competitively with the Mustang if they wish to generate decent sales otherwise it will be a failure. If they price a Camaro like a top end HSV than quiet frankly they are ripping of their customer base which will go elsewhere.

I don't see the economics of this adding up for anything bar a trickle of sales at best. If they get out of double digits per month they will be doing very well.

No badge engineering too. It'll be a Chevrolet Camaro.

I wonder too how much $ they'll sell those Silverados for? Maybe around the same price the Ram trucks are available for now..
