With the economy the way it is and oil prices going through the stratosphere...
Do you think the Camaro will be a limited run like the GTO or do you think its back to stay for good?

It's difficult to say it'll be around "for good". But I firmly believe it will last much longer than the GTO. And frankly, if it's introduced into this economy and times and survives it's first two-three years, it should last quite a long time after.....

The GTO was never planned to be more than a 3 year run. If it had been a huge success they might have come up with a new version. It was a stop gap car to cover the Camaro and the lack of excitement with in Pontiac.
The Camaro will last longer than 3 years. The big money has already been spent on the car. Worst case they can keep building the same car for 5-7 years, even if its not selling well, and let it die a slow death. They probably would have kept building the 4th gen for a few more years if it had met the 2003 crash standards.

If it has to have a 5 year life cycle then it will be around for a long while. The economy and energy costs will be back on track by then and people will be spending like they did. With a good economy and reasonable gas prices the camaro will sell well.
