I am a product of the 80's so here is my opinion...
The Trans Am came out in the 80's with a new body style. Knight Rider. The hottest thing on the road at that time (other than the Vette and exotics). Sleek lines and awesome handling car. Camaro was a little more clumsy on the lines and interior.
Now the next generation was released. Even more sleek like the corvette. Im my opinion "the cheap mans vette" with extra seats in the back for kids. In my opinion an excellent car. The Mustang of the time outsold the Camaro.... DONT ASK ME WHY! The Camaro and Trans Am models were fabulous cars compared to the ugly Mustang.
Rather than continue the tradition with the new Camaro and progress... they steal the concept from the Mustang and go backwards. Just doesn't make sense to me.
