I have seen only one other Green Flash out in the wild. I do see other 5th gens out and about.

Most of the time I'm the only 5th gen at a meet or the strip. Inferno Orange with white stripes draws some admirers where ever I go. And I'm usually the only modded one if I do meet up with others. I'm also proud of my of what 40-0 record in the rev battle dept haha

Seeing a lot of 6th gens.
Not many 2010-13s.
Still a number of 14-15s roaming around.

I think you are seeing the result of a lot of the people that were wowed by the early 5th gens trading them for something 'flashier'.

These are the people that tend to not get attached to cars and like to trade up every couple years. The excitement of the return of the Camaro has worn off long ago for them. But at the same time you will see an influx of used 5th gens entering the market as well, so it should mostly balance out. The people that have always wanted one but couldn't afford when new should be snatching them up, as prices are really getting interesting now when compared to what you are getting.

Here in central New York there are plenty of 5th Gens on the road.

Thats true. I have a 2011 and there wasn't a ZL1 at the time but now I see them for sale for what I paid for my SS or even cheaper. I cant bring myself to trade up but its still good to see.

GM is discontinuing it in 2023.

They said "We have launched the final variant of this generation of Camaro"
The 2023 sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro will be the last model year, unless the
nameplate is revived again in the future. Though it's been indicated that the real
cause of the Camaro’s discontinuation is likely due to restructuring at General Motors.

AND; Eventually, after cars have been discontinued, parts do get harder to find.
