Besides; this is a temporary reduction. There's every likelihood in the world that it gets ramped back up again in the second half of the year.
God I hope you are right. However I am sorry I just don't see the Pontiac niche thing working in terms of consumer confidence for at least 2 years or so. I also think the MPG hurt the car, I know it is incredible for the power and weight, but still since the brand name is not exactly the most respected name in the industry. Hopefully that will soon change. I am confident however that the Camaro will not meet a similair fate, due to a variety of factors including affordability, good mileage, good job marketing the car (Transformers), and did I mention a drop-dead gorgeous exterior?
