Well - -we did a 30th and a 35th Anniversary - so why wouldn't we do a 45th? (and then later a 50th?) It isn't an either/or.
As to fuel economy......something to soak on:
The year: 1979.
Double digit inflation......
Double digit INTEREST rates......
Fuel prices thru the ceiling........
Double digit unemployment.........
.........and we delivered over 282,000 Camaros (and that doesn't include Firebirds.....) -- AND - -the 2nd gen was now 10 years old!
Gas prices do not always impact cars like Camaro and Corvette.......
