If I were interested in getting a 1969 Camaro, I would buy one. But I want a 2010 Camaro, as nice as the '69 is I'd rather have a new car over it. 40 year old styling was good for its time, but well it looks 40 years old now. I want a car that feels new, feels fresh, but will remind you of the history of the car. The new Camaro does that very well. Also, people will probably soon tire of the heavy retro influances that are seen in cars like the Challenger, HHR, and Mustang. Lastly, there are a good number of people in the target market who aren't thrilled by old muscle cars. These people drive cars such as the Evo. Very very few of them would buy a completely retro car, something that is modernized would be more appealing.

So, no I don't feel that GM screwed the Camaro up. I think there is a thread somewhere with a poll regarding how satisfied are you with the Camaro.
