So instead of the rumored interior improvements I've been waiting for in the 2012 models, G.M. will sneak them into one of their new versions that come out every six months. Nice...not!

idk if this is a good idea for chevy and the camaro. they already have great sales numbers with a solid following of customers. if they flood the market with a bunch of different cars its only going to alienate us diehards, and ruin the image with "special editions" that are probably nothing more then some different stripes/color and a new spoiler/wheels. my family has been in the car business for a while and i cant count how may mustang owners ive talked to who love their car when they buy it but 6 months later there is a newer edition.

The TF3 car would be horrible. I've often wondered about bringing back the Berlinetta, but I'm not sure I would recommend it. Maybe a new Yenko edition or some special edition releases similar to the one-offs or unofficial low-run mods we see with aftermarket suppliers like Hurst or SLP.

It needs interior improvements. Some weight reduction. Strengthen the drivetrain. Better bushings (they can learn from Pedders how to do this without sacrificing ride quality).

Make the next version a better CAMARO; not just a cosmetic change. This has always been the downfall of Detroit automakers; they start with a great car, then slowly hokey/crap it up with "special editions" etc. until it's a sad mess of what used to be a great car. Just like software companies, they add "features" no one asked for, and ignore fixing the things that their existing customers have been complaining about. The software slowly gets bigger, clumsier, slower... until it's just disappointing at best.

DON'T DO IT CHEVY! You started something fantastic with this Camaro; STAY THE COURSE. Learn from Apple's approach. Study the forums; listen to all the feedback from the people who bought the car and make the next one so good that they'll buy it again. There's a reason why Apple is debt-free, has $60 billion in the bank, and is the #1 tech company in the world. Follow their lead and make the next Camaro the evolutionary improvement of this first fantastic car.
Well said.

Not a big fan of replicars

I don't know why anyone would want a replica of the Indy Pace Car for example. Save the premium for it and get a really good painter to do a little work on a standard one and you have something unique that is yours. There's a four or five year old Vette replicar from an past Indy and IMHO it looks stupid. Plus the vinyl is starting to fade and peel.

Limited editions are ridiculous and don't mean anything towards the value of a car. I have a 96 Camaro SS (1 of 2410) that is more limited than a 35th anniversary SS and no one seems to really care. They are just cars with different colors and stickers. Make them more functional and more people will but them...period.
