We sold nearly 95,000 Camaros in 2013 - - a majority of those cars went to people who are most likely not enthusiasts.........

And THAT is what we must look at..........so there IS an argument for Automatic Climate Control on the next generation Camaro........

...but I would also say that when we were working on the current car in the mid 2000s - climate control wasn't a big issue to most. (...and yes, we asked the question to a lot of people......) The times they DO change!.......

The times aren't changing its the buyer.I came from a BMW with all the bells and whistles and most of that crap I never used.I for one enjoy the driving experience not all the B.S. that can be crammed into a car.

I was watching a comedian not to long ago talking about the radio controls on a steering wheel.His comment was,now who is that efing lazy that they can not reach 1ft to change the radio.

What we are dealing with here is need and want.Do some need all this extra carp in a car,no.Do some want it,yes.Now mind you after said items are added and there is a price increase they will whine about that aslo.

Like the song goes,you cant please everyone so you got to please yourself.I for one am happy with my Camaro you guys did a great job.Hell I remember when cars came with no A/C at all.We called it 260 air,roll down two windows and go 60mph.
