...will be coming out on 9/1. Camaro6 will again see more activity than it's seen in four weeks explaining how Camaro marketing and sales is going according to GM's plan.

So true and Ford sells so many Mustangs to rental fleets that no matter where you try and rent a car all they have are Mustangs and nothing else.

Interesting read:

http://gmauthority.com/blog/2016/08/what-chevrolet-says-about-slipping-sixth-gen-camaro-sales/

In a nutshell, GM does not acknowledge that lowers Gen6 Camaro sales are part of some grand master plan and they are not happy with being behind the Mustang in that department.
A good read for sure, I really liked this part:

For what it’s worth, Chevrolet is also very well aware that the gen six Camaro is widely recognized as the car to get in the class.
I think they're drinking their own koolaid. The fact that sales are in the toilet would indicate that it's not the car to get.

EDIT: Overall, Ford down 9%. Lincoln up 7%.

That was my takeaway as well. Sure as hell seems they thought they would be a little closer. You don't build up that big of an inventory unless you plan on that type of volume.

What is the Mustang's days in inventory?

Based on what's listed on Cars.com, combined '16 & '17 inventory is at about a 50-55 day sales inventory, assuming the August sales rate.

There are almost twice as many '16 & '17 Camaros in dealer's inventory versus '16 & '17 Mustangs.

Not sure how reliable Cars.com is, but it provides a rough estimate.

Interesting that Cars.com also lists almost 500 new '15 Camaros for sale, mostly Z-28s.

Good numbers for Mustang. Don't know about everywhere else but chevy dealers in my area have started giving some incentives on camaro v6's and i4's mostly cash off

Bingo. That's all you need to defeat the Camaro6 argument of "Chevy plans to sell less".

Prepare for 25 pages of the same shit on Camaro6.

If there was going to be a Camaro bump it would have surfaced by now.

The 5th Gen is simply the better seller and more popular car at this point, and unless something dramatic changes, it's likely to continue until at least 2019
