EDIT: I didn't join this site merely to defend Mustangs or anything, but being a guy that is involved with both the Ford and Chevy communities there is a lot of misinformation and skewed perspectives on both sides. I don't want anyone to think I am here being a troll especially since I haven't bashed the Camaro. I just might end up owning a new Camaro, but that doesn't change facts.

BUTT DYNO...
Funny and true.
You make good points which are valid. Ford has been both under and over rated in their hp claims. I can understand a car co. wanting to under rate their hp in a particular vehicle to assist the buyer in saving a few bucks on their car insurance in order to actually be able to afford owning the car.
But, the practice of over rating a vehicles hp to sell more cars and make the veh more desireable is very poor practice and is a slap in the face to the unsuspecting new owner.
It's obvious you are not a troll and you do bring good points/discussion. Personally, I'm not a Ford guy, but still respect the muscle car that it is. Hopefully you do end up owning a new Camaro!
