You mention the Camaro V6 and I agree completely. Watching the BRZ/FRS commercials make them look awesome and exciting to drive. Now just imagin a Camaro V6 commercial just like that, and then at the end they slap something up on the screen that says "ALL THIS......AND 29MPG!!!" It would be icing on the cake. To make it more clear I think the mileage should be mentioned in the ad, but they need to focus more on the excitement of the car, and then hit the watcher with the MPG bonus at the end.
Your logic about getting them young is more than just good logic....it should be ESSENTIAL. I can't believe GM doesn't have a Cruze SS or Sonic SS/RS or something similar. The progression from entry level sporty car, to mid level sport car to high end car should be there...and right now they are missing a very important piece of that pie.

You are so right!! I love my V6 LS Camaro and it seems there is no marketing push for what I think is a lot of car for the money. I mean 323hp is nothing to sneeze at. In fact one of the reasons I got the V6 was the power was pretty good considering it was a V6 and it wasn't long ago V8s were putting out this power. Add the fuel efficiency and its a win/win.
I had a 350z once and I love my Camaro compared to it. Then I added ZL1 wheels and tires and it completely changed the feel of the handling....I love it!
