Does anyone know if there is a difference in dealer allocation by equipment? Say if a dealer had 10 allocations, are they trim independent (10 Camaros of any flavor) or is there a breakdown (6 SS, 3 LT, 1 LS, whatever) of what a dealer may get? The reason I ask - I know that 2/3 of the 2010's will probably be SS cars based on the numbers indicated in the forums, but GM still has to meet CAFE requirements even in bankruptcy. If they produce 100K Camaros this year, and 60K of them get a combined 19 mpg (auto/man SS both rated at 19 by EPA), GM is going to have to sell a whole lot of Aveos, Cobalts and HHRs to make up the difference. At some point, the production numbers have to shift toward the V6 models to make the "number", wouldn't they?

If this has been covered elsewhere, I apologize - I did a forum search and didn't find what I was looking for.
