If they make the rear seat more roomy, i'd say they still have a market. a bigger Camaro (at least interior) will probably be the only way. Hate to say it, but more of the Challenger strategy.

I'm really loving the rear end of the vette. Gm is sometimes inconsistent with that but they really nailed it here.
