2019 has already seen the return of the Toyota Supra and arrival of the mid-engine Corvette. But for every one of those ground-breaking debuts, there are dozens of cars that are withering on the vine from lack of attention.

We’re going to play a game called kill it, invest, or let it ride - and decide their fate, one by one.

This week we lost a giant of the auto industry: Lee Iacocca. A veteran of both Ford and Chrysler, Iacocca stamped his mark on both automakers, giving one an enduring icon and saving the other from the brink.

On this week’s show, we’re discussing the Chevy Camaro, which anonymous sources have claimed will be discontinued after the 2023 model year. If that happens, this would be the second time that GM has killed the Camaro.

On this week’s show, we’re going to discuss a topic that will never see resolution. It is an argument we’ve have had with dozens of people dozens of time.
