Nah, we're #1 because we're #1! God I at least hope so over the Hyundai Accent.

15 cars fueling the auto recovery: Camaro top of the list.
"There may be no better case for the GM bailout than this overdue muscle car, a hit by almost every standard. The raucous styling enlivens the road, a pair of available engines both pack punch, and the starting price of about $23,000 puts the Camaro within reach of the masses. It's a welcome arrival in a dreary year, and enthusiastic buyers have rewarded Chevy by purchasing nearly 50,000 Camaros since the car debuted over the summer."

I think it's more first one listed than top of the list but good to see it in there nonetheless.

I think Camaro is pulling all the weight and they listed the other 14 for "fluff", just to fill out the article.

If you take in account that the Camaro has only been on sale for about 7 months and the others are listed for at least 10 months and more in some cases, the 50,000 Camaros that have been sold is even more impressive.

As it should be. Kinda weird to see my car on the list, makes me wonder if the list is old - I don't think you can buy a new G8 anymore.

Nice to see the G8 on the list since its a great car. Too bad they got killed off. There are still a couple of G8's left over on the local pontiac lot but I dont think any others will be available.
