I'm not talking about hard facts of numbers, because while they are nice they are not what I focus or obsess on when reading these reviews. My "meat and potatoes" comment refers more to the reviewers lack of describing the driving dynamics and tendencies of the car. About 90% of the review was about the history of the Camaro, the Transformers movies, how he was nervous driving it around the track, etc.

To me, he was telling a story as a writer, not giving his impressions as a driver. It was a good read, but I didn't get much out of it.
