I'll wait till a more reputable source gets ahold of it.
I didn't see any bashing, everything I read was fair. The V6 can't run with the 'big boy' V8s but they do say it will "easily out-drag the V-6 versions of the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger." How can this be bashing:

It seemed appropriate to me, the mullet comments were in reference to how its time for that association to go away. This is everything we want from the big car mags, giving the Camaro a fair chance as an all new car, not just assuming it a big, fast, poor handling and stopping, uncomfortable, gas guzzling muscle car.
