Here's an even more absurd comparison:

camaro-concepts-dead-even/
The ONLY reason that poll came out anywhere near even is that Bow-Tie
lovers are desperate for any current RWD platform.
Plus the few that were the market for the last editions... they want
their cars to be MEAN and Agressive looking while they are sitting..
And the FIRST thing many would do is slap an "03" decal in the rear
window. Which driver/owner attitude, frankly, is my ONLY reason for
hating GM and its products.
