But for the better part of two generations, they weren't just re-badged Camaros.

An engine doesnt change whether or not they were made on the same production line with the same frame. Ever heard of
Any
Motors
Corporation?
So if you ordered one with a chevy engine it was a chevy because it had a chevy engine in it? or if I put a chevy engine in a fox body it is magically a chevy?
They have always been a Camaro, sorry to burst your bubble there. And BTW I am a Pontiac guy but I own two Camaros
