I vote the F5 DOES NOT get Right-hand drive here in the states, regardless of it's size!

Now I am sorry, but I have trouble equating the Camaro to a Premium V6 touring coupe that will probaly cost at least $34K after a few options...
Maybe Your view of Camaro is different then mine..but I see a camaro as a affordable V8 powered RWD 2+2 that offers a V8 for the price of your average family sedan. The Z28 did that last time around, and has pretty much always with previous RS V8's and Formula's.
A Camaro is not about GPS, and heated seats, and a nice touring ride etc. like G35. They may be nice...but I would rather see them not included if it comes down to the breaking point of making the car cost too much.

Base G35 coupe, cloth interior, under $30,000.

Leather interior adds about $2,000+:

Who said anything about a $34,000 Camaro? That's a little on the dramatic side considering you have to put in some effort to get the Cadillac CTS up that high.
As far as having trouble seeing Camaro as a premium touring coupe, you probally don't want to trace Camaro's history back prior to 1988, because that was the 1st year in Camaro's history in which there wasn't a "Touring Coupe" type model available.
The original Camaro RS, the Camaro LT, and finally, the Camaro Berlinetta all served in that capacity over Camaro's 1st 20 years.
