2010 Camaro Sales
With all of this talk about “going green” and “fuel efficiency” you would think that hybrids and small cylinder engined cars would be topping sales, correct? Not quite.
The Camaro gets excellent fuel economy, don’t get me wrong… but is sure isn’t a Chevy Cobalt or a Ford Focus. That hasn’t seemed to stop, or even hurt the Camaro sales at all, as 2010 is shaping up to be a great year for the 2010 Chevy Camaro. The Chevy Camaro hasn’t beat the Ford Mustang in annual sales since 1991, but after 18 years of being a far cry for success, the Camaro has become a fierce competitor in the muscle car world.

Despite having fewer model variations on the market, pent up demand for the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro appears to have been enough to send the bad Bowtie past Ford’s redone Mustang in June. Sales figures for the month are beginning to trickle in today, and General Motors says it shifted 9,320 Camaro units last month, as compared to the Blue Oval’s 7,632 Mustangs.
Whether Chevrolet’s victory will be sustainable over the long haul remains to be seen, but as The General has a backlog of 10,000 sold orders to fill (equating to less than a seven day supply), the streak is likely to continue for at least the next few months. Presently, GM offers just two main Camaro models, the V6 RS and the V8-powered SS, while the Ford Mustang has more bodystyles and trims than you can shake a stick at (arguably making the Camaro’s achievement seemingly that much more impressive).
Sales of the third leg of 2009′s pony car table, the Dodge Challenger, trail far behind, with just 1,369 units cleared last month.
As the industry heads into the dog days of summer, it looks like America’s renewed pony car war is just heating up. Who will take the crown for the whole year? Sit tight, muscle fans.
One thing is clear, people like the new Camaro and Ford might have just gotten a little too comfortable with not having the competitor of the Camaro around for the last few years.
