Don't misunderstand; its numbers aren't bad and in fact they are good but with 426HP and five years to develop the car; I expected more.

I think it's a great car and will be a hell of a lot fun to drive but for my money, I think I'd buy a one or two year old "Vette.
I've owned several f-bods and several vettes as well, but I'm afraid they will lose my business this time around. As someone who as owned so many GM performance vehicles, I wanted to love the new camaro, but (as I mentioned above) I've hit a point in my life where straight line performance is cool, but a quick, comfortable, traffic carver with nice interior refinements is a little more attractive.
