Joe has always amazed me in that his maturity far exceeds his age. He's intelligent, trustworthy, level-headed, and he's demonstrated thru his actions that he's deserving to have such an opportunity. (not saying by any means that others are not deserving...)

I think that simply reading his exceptional reporting of his experiences answers the question.
Why can't some Journalists write this well? That's not a slam at anyone - but when was the last time you read an article that felt like you were actually in the car with the driver?? Myself? I can't recall......

And for what it's worth? I'd be proud to have Joe as a son. (I'd say "brother" but I'm ancient and he's a young man in his 20s....) Further, I'm proud to call him "Friend" --

(.....and I had nothing to do with him being chosen......I know too many people due to my many years of travelling to Camaro/Firebird shows - thus the team picked the attendees...)
Thanks for the feedback FBodFather, I was literally at the edge of my seat reading his reviews, heart racing throughout. Joe is very exceptional with his writing. I look very much forward to hearing more about this car, and hopefully making it my first Camaro!! I've only owned one other car(300zx) which was really fun, but my heart has always been with american muscle and honestly no other car stirs my soul like the Camaro !
