Why GM Is Killing The Chevy Camaro After 57 Years

Very good watch. Thank you for posting this. The Camaro will most certainly come back, but what it will look like…and sound like, is a mystery. Needless to say, it will never be the same as the long, badass run it’s had.

I need to buy shares in GM so I can be a part of the shareholder lawsuit when this blows up in GM’s face.

I think gm has a part in killing off this site along with the 6th gen. This site is down more then it's available these days. The video was a good watch though.

The demise of the ICE Camaro as we know it can be traced directly to the the government. The EPA along with this administrations policy to eliminate fossil fuel is the driving force that ends Camaro production. When the government bailed out GM it's tentacles were already revealed in just what they could do to force change in automobile designs. Corporations cannot win against a government that uses the law to force compliance. Nothing the consumer does can stop this even with boycotting. Refuse to go along with EV's and the government will just raise the price of fuel to force compliance. So enjoy your Camaro for now knowing you can't win this fight.

The tree of liberty needs watering.

From time to time

Let's not forget it was put away for 8 years not so long ago.

So the government does play a part…

Yeah, I'm not sure the government can be completely to blame here. After all, they didn't force GM into horrible business decisions(Lutz) that DID actually lead to a bankruptcy & begging for a bailout.

If anything, the trimming GM had to do, did lead to a leaner, better GM, IMO. Way too many cookie cutter models across the brands. And if memory serves, I believe they killed the F bodies in 2002 to get out of their agreement with Canada to produce the F bods only in Canada, at that outdated facility.:noidea:

Yeah, but this is nothing new, it's an Obama era regulation.

I wasn’t being partisan. Merely stating the government is dictating.

I'm completely non-partisan. I dislike all politicians as a matter of principle. I feel pretty much the same about 99% of federal government employees, excepting military.

I still recall setting a speed record for a cost benefit analysis (rebuilding a destroyed water treatment plant) for the US Army Corps of Engineers, and being told privately that I should have slowed down and used all the billable hours.

The idea that a government entity knows more about GM's business than GM does and could help them efficiently trim down is ludicrous.
