GM were contemplating an RHD Camaro (which was initially developed from a Holden Monaro) as a halo product for the Australian market and as a V8 Supercar Entry.
There were thoughts about rebranding it as a Holden Camaro, or perhaps Chevy being a performance sub-brand in the Aussie market. It's all a bit up in the air.
I'd love to see that happen as I love V8 Supercars, I still think it is the best touring car series in the world. It would be amazing to see Mustangs and Camaro's chasing each other all over Mount Panorama!
The recent PSA (Peugeot, Citroen, Vauxhall, Opel) and FCA (Dodge, Fiat, Chrysler, Alfa) merger may mix things up a bit more. Perhaps a Dodge Challenger could enter too?
