Personally, I've never cared as much for C&D magazine. They do a good job, but for some reason I can't quite put my finger on, Motor Trend is the magazine that does it right. Hence, I have a subscription to it... In the newest issue, of all the new car magazine issues with the Camaro in them, Motor Trend's information seems the most accurate/plausible (for the details still yet to be released).

I use to love reading car mags...then, I got tired of reading tons of bias shhhhhhhhut your mouth, lol, so just take them as a guide...not really a rule....lol.

Someone paid a high price to keep the Camaro out of there, it makes no sense!

NOTE: LOL....I'm so late for this....lol, disregard.

This is nothing new. Look what they did during the mustang gto head to head. The GTO beat it in every catagory so they made up the difference with a new one "gotta have it factor".

Yet,the Mustang had lost EVERY comparision that it was put in for the last decade,Car and Driver is pro-Camaro,just look at any reviews from '93 on,it's probably the best reviewed pony car and the Corvette gets lots of good press from them as well,i believe it made the cover last month or the month before. There's no anti-Ford or anti-GM anything at work in any of these magazines,there may be a goofy comparision or a bad review every once in a while,but overall i've never seen a constant theme of them bashing a type of brand. They wrote a horrible review of the BMW X3 and i believe that same car lost a match-up against a Subaru. I'm sure Bimmer fans wrote hate-mail and accused the writers of being on the Subaru payroll.........

That's not a coincidence or bad editorial...that's the Mustang.
