Chevydude26 - Just remember who's Zeta platform gave you the Camaro
If it wasnt for GM Holden Australia, the Camaro wouldn't exist at all.. dont forget that. GM USA killed the camaro and had no RWD platform to build the new one on.
As for roof height - Australian engineers needed to increase the roof height in order to meet FMVSS (US) regulations for head swing and roll over.
The design is actually extremely well optimized (designed to be barely legal)- had it been designed in the US i think the roof would have ended up higher - the US engineers at GM aren't known for executing well optimized cars.
