Chevrolet is building and selling Camaros like wild. They're more expensive because they have a fresh design, better interior components, and most importantly a powerhouse that brings it to the quarter mile mark a half-second faster. Why would GM charge less for a significantly superior product when it costs more to build?

Let's also point out that your numbers are bad. The Camaro SS starts at $31k. In other words, the Camaro SS is in the same price bracket as a Mustang GT. Let's also not forget that the Mustang needs its suspension package in order to keep up. It only wins in the "cool" category of some magazines. Even Ford comparisons verify that there is a substantial need for improvement to keep up. Why do you think Ford is rushing that 5.0L to the market?

The Camaro is not $10k more than a Mustang. The Camaro does cost more. Wouldn't you pay more for a better product?
