It didn't sell for one very simple reason: It belonged to a dying niche brand with fewer dealers, a bad brand image, and zero advertising. The low sales had nothing to do with the car itself. Caprice was not a good idea for a name, but that's no reason to want this car killed. And without another model to support the Zeta platform, that's another step closer to the grave for the Camaro. I don't see why we're all happy about this. With Camaro the only car in NA riding on Zeta, the business case for it looks really shaky.
the g8's looks screamed fake knockoff bmw...with less sleekness...it needs its own identity...thats why the g8 was ugly...nobody likes to buy cheap knockoffs ...look at the cts styling it doesn't try to look like anybody else its unique in its own style and still looks sleek and sexy while not trying to mimic anybody else
