It contiunes to climb insales over all while the Camaro has been dropping since the end of 2015. I do agree that they won't take many 1LE sales though. Those cars are more purpose built for people that have road courses in mind.

This- Lets be honest the Gen 5 1LE were not exactly a highly desired vehicle. Chevy had to offer huge discounts to unload the leftover 14s and 15s. So the thought that most prefer a handling vehicle is a myth. If this were the case the new SS would not be being beat solidly by the GT and also surpassed by the now 9 yro Challenger platform. The new SS is clearly the best balanced package yet sales are dismall.
