Lots of people are saying the Camaro's low sales are due to its front fascia, which is laughable to me. People don't buy cars or not solely based on the freakin' grille. I'm 6'4 and I had trouble even fitting into the current Camaro; it's extremely uncomfortable, and just too small. Its sightlines are also terrible, and it just feels plasticky all around. The Mustang is better and more comfortable, but feels a little generic, and that's probably why it's popular. (I've rented the current Mustang on vacations.) It still feels like a Fusion Coupe; it's inoffensive but a bit boring. The Challenger is big, and that's not a bad thing for some of us. It's also got better sightlines than either of its competitors, as well as more trunk space and a usable back seat. At the same time, it's got a lot more personality too. So it's kind of got everything if you're a big guy. If you're very small or you just want a smaller, more inoffensive car - and that's still probably more people even in this segment - then you get a Mustang. If you want a bigger car with more personality, you get a Challenger. The Camaro just doesn't match up well with either competitor, and it doesn't have its own niche. I'm sure it's a fine car in terms of performance and reliability, but there's more to a car than that. Chevy really needs to go back to the drawing board and figure out what the Camaro's supposed to be. Right now it's got the personality of a Malibu with the comfort of a Fiat 500.
