They are not the hardcore racers and modders that both sides fanboys think will make or break the cars. Face it, a really ugly stock 10 second car would be a sales flop despite performance. Camaros will sell more in 2010 because of the huge backlog of people who have wanted a new Camaro for the last 5 years. Model year 2011(the one that actually starts in the fall) will be the real test.

I wouldnt be surprised at all if there are some minor changes to the 2011 Camaro.
The 2009 and 2010 Challenger R/T's arent the same animal. They look the same on the outside, but inside there are a few ways to tell the two apart. Their engines arent direct copies of each other, neither is the suspension or computer.
Expect some changes in 2011, maybe a more aggressive stock tune to bring the HP and TQ up slightly to compete with the V6 Mustangs..but thats about it.
2012 is the model year to look out for, thats when you'll see some pretty interesting changes in the Camaro to respond to both the 6.4L SRT8's and the 5.0L GT's. My bet is that if the Z28 isnt brought into production, the SS's will get some boosts.
