I think the new Camaro will move the needle away from the stereotype.... but it will go slowly.

GM has been trying to kill the "disco" and "poser" image the Corvette developed for itself in the 1970s almost ever since. And even after the last 10 years of much improved products with much more credible performance, true racing heritage, etc., they still have some image issues IMO.
