That formula doesn't sell well anymore, as others have mentioned. The Mustang is a good example, Supra has been cancelled too.

Plus, most US manufacturers only make 1 car now...Ford has Mustang, Chevy has Corvette, and Dodge has Charger.

Not sure another car, let alone a V8 car, would be a feasible option for them.
Mustang Coupe sales are actually up quite a bit over the last year. I don’t have the numbers with me right now but in the last couple weeks it was kind of big news in the automotive news world.

Dodge is getting much better response now that the Hurricane is in the Charger as the EV Charger might have been the biggest flop since Edsel. And folks are still clamoring for a return of the Hemi, which all signs point to them putting it in there.

So with the reduced demand for EV, the changes in emissions, and I think a general malaise about boring SUVs everywhere you look, theres a market for a 2 door, V8 coupe

There’s also a market for a full size, body on frame off road SUV that Bronco and Wrangler own but GM chose to put the Blazer name on a unibody, FWD based soccer mom grocery getter.

So hopefully GM learned their mistake on that one.
