It also pulled the 2010 Edmund's Most Overrated list... alongside the Challenger SRT.

and the camaro will probably end up on the list too....edmunds blows hard....they got a 5.5 with a manual srt8 when all other mags got 4.6-4.7

i guess they were being honest because they suck at driving thus making the car seem overrated

... the list is out. The camaro cant 'end up' on it.


The reason the mustang was there is because its basically no different from the previous MY. And the reason the challenger was on there is because its basically the same $$ as the GT500 while loosing horribly to it.


But you can check my sig on how i rank them personally.

so gator blue???/ you like the bullit over the R/T??? When all your getting is a CIA... just throw that on the R/T and it easily takes that spot your bullit is in...
I hardly think you can find a GT500 to even buy much less in the price range of an SRT-8 Challenger...
And you put the LS2 Goat over the GT500...Wow!!!...
Hey gator do you plan to buy a car on what a mag says?? Or what you want? The Camaro better be fast cause it's kinda ugly... you know like the chick you'd bang if you had a few beers in you, but prolly wouldn't flirt with sober... Ohh where's the 'Vette on your list??

You sir, are an idiot.


Where do I start with your post?


The LS2 Goat over the GT500 is a no brainer... for less than 20k you can get a perfect condition, <5K miles GTO which will run with the GT500 only losing by tenths of a second for about 20k less. Now i know this is a long shot judging by the content of your own post, but id ASSUME even YOU know what you could do with twenty thousand dollars. BTW this is ignoring the fact that the GTO has superior build quality over the GT500.

Yes i like the Bullitt over the R/T, have you ever driven them? The Bullitt has about a 500lb weight adv. on the R/T resulting in a much more athletic feeling car. You can have alot more fun in a Bullitt than you can in an R/T period. Its slightly faster but the weight is the real reason it wins out here, while the fact that you don't see them everywhere puts it above the normal GT.

I left the Viper and Corvette off because i didnt see a reason to put them in. Technically they would be classified as a type of muscle car, but for the purpose of my own personal list, they didn't fit the bill. Obviously it would have cluttered the list a bit, ZR1 on top, ACR next, Z06, SRT-10 etc...

I know people have different opinions, and your entitled to think the Camaro is ugly. I think your an idiot. But hey, to all their own.

As for me, im not a brand loyalist. You'll find many threads on this site from me about the Nissan Z or any other number of cars i find interesting. I am a car enthusiast, not a fan boy. People confuse the two when someone takes sides.
