Most Camaro buyers aren't tracking the car where they even need the extra cooling or extra braking power. You don't even need that stuff for Autocross.
People shouldn't have to pay 5K+ more for an SS2, when GM could have offered the convenience features as an option on the LT1. GM got greedy.
And again, the price to add those features for the I4 and V6 cars was nowhere near as large.

I do agree they should have had a proper answer to the Mustang GT Premium without the performance pack. A true sports car daily driver friendly V8 that has all the creature comforts and tech but without being the track car.
