They are like farts in the wind. Take it with a grain of salt.

The Camaro was starting to reel it in about halfway through... and the mustang won by a little under a car length.

Actually reading that the Camaro's styling is already old and "cartoonish" calls into question their sanity. "The Camaro's no match for the GT." As if dude.
Hey enjoy that Genesis too, loser!
With this much sense these guys must still be trying to flip houses and get into the nasdaq stock boom.

Did you notice that one of those guys ranked the V6 Challenger above the SS. That is ridiculous! Hmmm, every single one picked the stang first. Isn't that interesting. Motor Trend is crap. They are paid advertisers for whoever has the newest car. I like to read the articles for the performance numbers, but the rankings just piss me off.

The style is old and cartoonish? Idk what that makes its competitors, because the last time I checked it was the Camaro that won the Design of the Year award.

Wow, that looks like a completely unbiased set of ranks. I just can not stand reading Motor Trend lately. Or any other car magazine for that matter. Don't mind all the awards that the camaro has won this year Motor Trend. The mustang is still better because the 7 of you love it..

EDIT: OMG, I just realized after reading the article that the camaro is a Total POS. Why over a 100,000 people bought the car last year is beyond me.

Hey now! These aren't personal opinions, this is evidence of one car being better than another!
