    Obviously...I have. So don't assume. No vision anywhere... blind spots are death comparable...For 426 rated crank horsepower...it was slow. The steering wheel is epic junk...like holding a red wood tree from California it was so fat and oddly shaped...the shifter is clunky...dash needles are bent like they have polio...want me to go on?

    None of that has anything to do with people looking at it, which is what I was commenting on.
    IMO: blind spots aren't horrid, but they definitely exist. I wasn't a fan of the steering wheel the first couple times, but wasn't as bad once I got used to it. I personally don't have any real issues with the shifter(manual).

    It's still personal preference.

    It's still a ugly car to look at.

    I THINK.

    In all honesty i do like the look of the new camaro only because its aggressive lookin. With 20's, lowered, the RS package, and optional aftermarket head/fog lights they just look mean rollin down the street but.... As for performance im with blue ill take the stang anyday while it dosent look half bad.

    If you want to know slow then how about you race it.... as in you run and someone will drive the camaro.

    Love the look of the new Camaro and not a big fan of the Mustang, BUT! I do give alot of respect to Ford for making one helluva engine! For 5.0L over 400hp is very nice! Still would take the Camaro over it though, especially when that smexy ZL1 comes out!!!

    Sad they dont make pony cars anymore.

    Just muscle cars.

    Pony cars at least had some opportunity to handle well.

    New Camaro = slow. I kinda like how they look, but they're way too slow. I could probably beat a v6 one on foot they're so slow. It's like strapping a v6 onto a motorhome it's so heavy. I really hope the zl-1 redeems it, and makes it better.
