My client has a beautiful Aston Martin he just had built and he too has two rear seats with beautiful leather interior, but literally, you cannot sit in them. The front seats do not fold to allow access to them. He confirmed from the actual guy that handbuilt his car in Britain that was indeed the reasoning behind this. This information is accurate and if I'm restating old information, I apologize, but I felt it needed to be said. You can't be pissed off at Chevy for making the rear seats difficult to get to and then make a gripe about it. Be thankful you have even limited functional rear seats.
For the record, Chevrolet/GM is only earning between $1000.00 to $3000.00 profit on a Camaro (Depending on Trim) assuming it was sold MSRP. So don't bitch and complain about ammenity issues. If you could afford to buy a Corvette, you should. Hell, I would too. You'd be crazy not to. How could you really compare the two cars? If you could afford to buy a Vette, why are you preaching to the choir about your issues with the new Camaro?
