RE: Camaro Goes Hybrid?
A hybrid muscle car will not go over. That is like trying to get a person who likes steaks to eat veggy burgers. It won't happen. They will subsitute to chicken first (diesel).
Patrick, I realize that the 300C most likely can get 30mpg when driven correctly as I have been able to do over 32mpg with E10 with my car that was only rated for 26mpg, but if I'm not mistaken the issue is that the cars are judged by the "offical" EPA ratings. My question is what happens when the car companies are not able to meet the CAFE standards.
The fact of the matter is the demand for V8 cars is there, they are just afraid of the Gov't regulations. My theory is continue making the muscle cars until you can't sell them. That way people will be burned out on them (if that is possible).
