Well he is going to have a hard time getting his hands on an SS from GM for a review. Trust me on this .

Agreed on that. There is no other reason to come to an enthusiast website and refer to your own web review. May just be wanting someone to see how many hits his article has.

It is almost like he never really evaluated the car. It has a small trunk opening, but not a small trunk. That comment, made by many of the mags as well, tells me it was a superficial evaluation. Hilton can put hockey kit and I can get golf equipment and pack for a trip to California. It is NOT a small trunk.

Headroom? Much better than most other cars with a sunroof. I could not drive a Monte Carlo with a sunroof without the seat being so far reclined I couldn't drive the car comfortably. Camaro.....not a problem.

Maybe he should just read the reviews I've posted here. More insightful, but that's my opinion.

every time i go anywhere i'm reminded of how awesome this car is. from when i sit in my two tone leather seats, to the sweet sound of that v8 when i turn the key, to the power at will feeling in my feet, to the fact that people everywhere give me thumbs up and stop to chat about this fantastic vehicle... i didnt buy it for trunk space, thats what my tahoe is for, and i didnt buy it for mpg, thats what my wifes acura is for...i bought it because as soon as i saw it i loved it !!

I only read the first test because his post here led me there.
Rest assure I have no intention on reading his second.
And ordered the 2SS because I want one and could care less what any reviewer has to say.
I have never been this excited about something in my whole life.
4 weeks since I ordered mine...longest 4 weeks I have ever experienced.

Alrighttyyy 1 deleted comment later, let me try again




I thought your review was a great example of why you'd never work for a real publisher. Journalism 101, bias = fail. It was obvious the article was written with a (self admited) bias towards the Mustang GT.

Yup, kinda upset about the gangsta windshield, Only my Glock can fit thru, My AK-47 won't fit. LOL
