Obviously the Camaro was a halo car that hasn't adequately replaced the HSV Commodores in sales numbers.
They will be a tough proposition for dealers who have been knocking $20k off them recently and still not moving much product.
As a sideline to a struggling Holden franchise they might have made sense but hard to sell profitably on their own. Who will take the financial haircut when Holden isn't ?
Certainly wouldn't hurt to have Camaros and Mustangs competing on the MARC platform for the next 5 or so years at least. The MARC 111 was already planned with a Camaro body and LS power.
Even though FIAT have temporarily canned the Challenger (to be badged as a Charger for Australia WTF ???) it would also have a supporter base.
Add the option of the Germans, Koreans and Japanese and I think it would be a pretty good series without requiring manufacturer support.
