By the time the 6th gen rolls out, there will be something like half a million 5th gens on the road. They aren't going to disappear overnight.

As time goes on, the 5th gen forum will shift even more towards DIY type stuff, and less about 5th gen news. But the archives will still be here, and there will be plenty of people lurking around ready to answer questions (which half the time will probably involve directing someone to a sticky). Such is the life cycle of a generation-specific forum.

Yes all 5th Gens should be in the junkyard in 5 years , Very rare indeed. You will probably have the only 1 left

You know, it depends where you live. 4th gen Camaros hardly exist where I live. Granted, this car is more popular. But my wife saw a Pontiac Solstice yesterday, that little convertible, and she said - wow you don't see those anymore. Again, you don't see them around here.

So yeah the 5th gen will become less prevalent where we live as time goes on. Good news is, it will always be loved by the public

Next gen Camaro should weigh hundreds of pounds less. Camaro SS could get a HP increase by using a version of the base C7 'vette engine. Less weight and more HP =
