And we wonder why some complain that American car companies don't pay attention to detail?

Say Chevrolet to a kid in the street and he'll say Lacetti (the Top Gear Reasonably Priced Car).
Way to squander your brand identity, Chevrolet.
They can't use the Camaro as a Halo car over here because it has no relevance, we didn't have ponycars the first time round. The Corvette was marketed as a standalone here, there was no Chevy prefix to its name.
The only way forward here would be un-Chevify all their Daewoo models and then go on TV with a commercial saying "We're ever so sorry, it's all been a monumental cock-up, we'll not do it again. Here's our new awesome range of cars".
But that'll never happen, and Daewoolets will continue to be bought by the dead or dying.

You guys didn't get Camaros or Firebirds?
I remember seeing a little article detailing graveyards of old American cars in Europe, and I remember there were a lot of second-gen F-bodies in one of the sites.
I asked flaevor the same, as I had thought that you guys did get them after seeing that.

You do see them around, but they're not a part of folk-lore like they should be

I do training in Flash, and the integration of Flash Video in the site is really impressive. It's well scripted and stylish, and calls no attention to the web tricks themselves. I'm going to spend more time on it to figure out how to integrate some of these techniques in my classes. Thanks for the tip.

It kind of destroys my most well thought out post in a week when I mis-use the English language.

Every German colleague I have shown the Camaro to thinks it looks awesome. It has been a long time since that could be said of a Chevy product over here.

I saw a picture a while back of a graveyard of old Firebirds and Camaros, mostly second-gens, somewhere over in Europe, though I can't remember exactly where it was. Were they sold over there?

I used to love that show.
The fact that Geordi LaForge hosted it only made it cooler.
