Due to customer demands for new features and the new crash/saftey rules that are now placed - it would of costed wwaayy too much to reengineer and retool the plant that the Camaro was built at - and than keep the Camaro looking the same. All manufactures (yes - even outside of Vehicle Producers) do what's best economy wise and money wise.

It was just simplier to cancel the camaro for a few years, build a new place/retool an exesting place during thoes years, and totaly build a new design from the ground up with the new saftey ratings in effect to meet and than beat (future 'upgrades') verisons of the saftey ratings.
