And believe me 28, if Matt drove a new '11 5.0 or any other high hp car on that Go-Kart track, it probably would not have faired well either against the "record holding" VW Gti.

I'm not trying to be sarcastic when I say that, it's just I don't see how that was a fair test is all.

Don't you agree? I mean really, putting a 400+hp car on a Go-Kart track?

Matt Farah is stupid and knows NOTHING about cars end of story. His Camaro review proves it along with most of his other reviews. He is also biased toward the Mustang big time so anything the guy has to say about Camaros shouldnt even be taken with a grain of salt. I mean any idiot that tapes a toy car to a hood of the real car and drives it around is a tool.

Matt Farah for car reviews-

So you are saying the camaro doesn't have a low roof line, poor visibility, and anyone over 6'3" shouldn't get a sunroof car?

How about all mustang and camaro owners agree to disagree. i have a 2010 camaro and my brother has a 93 gt cobra its built for racing and we go at it all the time and i always end the debate with" yeah your right my car is a slow piece of s#*t and i dont know how im able to drive it from baltimore to D.C for work because i cant see out the windows,damn your so right" after that he laughs i laugh and then we talk more about performance than cosmetics because thats what we are into. Besides i think the design awards for the camaro speaks for itself but anyway buy the car you want and for your own personal reasons and no one elses. I love my camaro and dont care what anyone says especially critics because in the end everyone is bias in some way. I guess what im trying to say is lets all just try to be respectable. we all have wonderful cars and we all have our own preference plain and simple.

I agree 100% with what Matt said about that part of the review, but his show is called "The Smoking Tire" (not "Smoking Car Styles) and is therefore performance oriented.

So when he took a 400+ hp Camaro to a Go-Kart track and said it was slower than a VW Gti, that's just plain misleading.

And that's what I'm taking him to task for ...

Fazm the low roof line isn't a problem in the least for one thing you can adjust the seats up and down and 6'9 Andrew Bynum that plays for the Lakers owns a 2010 Rally yellow Camaro with a sun roof if he can fit almost anyone can so your point there is null and void. Yeah I do admit the car does have blind spots due to the design but the blind spots can be fixed in due time with the evolution of the car over the years as most cars do. Also almost all cars have their blind spots and it hasnt caused me much of a problem with driving the car.

Although some of his points in my view were valid it was seriously a bonehead move to drive it on a Kart track and not expect people to call foul.

I hope Matt is MAD personally he's the one that decided to film and post his stupid review a year after the Camaro had even been out and puts up a lackluster review on a go-kart track with a toy model of the car taped to the front and then proceeds to continually bash the car to no end throughout the review. Then to top matters off he reviews a new 5.0 Mustang saying he used to have one or it was his first car and praises it with no faults when we all know there is no such thing as an unfaulty car no matter what brand unless its like a ZR-1 or something similar like that out of price range. What I want to happen is for Chevrolet to own the Mustang to no end with the Z/28 and the next gen Lighter alpha platform Camaro to prove how stupid Matt is in the first place.
