They did a great job with the Camaro, no one is questioning that. However if they go the extra mile and give it the first class interior like some of those we see in Caddy's, they can charge more $$ for it, increasing the margin of profit on each car. The more profit they make, the more they can invest in next level technology and sweet things to put in the cars. Example? BMW.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
