IMHO, all three of these cars are GREAT! If one of them is a gnat's eyelash quicker in the 1/4, or .0125 seconds quicker around a road coarse, who cares, really? If Motor Trend likes the Mustang better, who GAF. They are doing what their job description calls for and that is to evaluate cars. I bought my SS to be my car and toy. I am not a proffessional drag or road racer. I just happen to love the looks and performance of Camaros. I went through the go faster syndrome in the 1980's with the Japanese sporting motorcycles. Every time a new, faster and greater bike came out, I had to have it. I found myself buying a new liter class motorcycle every 2 years. In the early 1990's, I began to see the folly of my ways and returned to the Harley camp. I know that my Harley is not state of the art or the fastest of the gofasters going in. What I get is a classic design and a completely reliable motorcycle that I do not get sick of owning when next month's crop of magazines come out. The Mustang is this years darling. Last year it was our Camaros. Next year it will be something else. I will still have my SS. I will still be enjoying it. The motorjournalists are not "Haters", they are evaluators.
