Thats the problem is we arn't comparing cars.. we are comparing business models.
Ford looked at the market.. RWD 2 door coupes and said " we will make the cheapest fun, good looking car we can" and did it. THATS why they have sold 6 digits for the last 3 years (08 sales have dropped).
GM looked and said "WE CAN DO THAT" and turned around and
made a GREAT CAR that because of content is priced to high. NOW the business model has changed from making a good looking fun car to "lets make the best in class and charge appropriately and expect it to sell like the cheap car".
And in business school this doesn't fly...
PS I am NOT saying the camaro is a bad deal, I am saying the business model isn't going to net the mustang numbers and the reasons why.
