2010 mustang has huge incentives and mustang sales were higher in MAy when more 2010s were on sale.
Great point. There are no, $0 incentives on the Camaro available to the general public. Never have been any. Even the GM employees deal is around $1000-1200 off MSRP. And I can tell you that Camaro inventories of 2010s is very low right now. Strong numbers to be sure given the incentives that Ford is offering on the previous model Mustang.
