Forbes lied about our Camaros just to make us look bad! We need to make Forbes pay. We can't have Forbes spreading these rumors, we have our reputations to think about.

I suspect the woman writing the article just can't read that 6.7 is really 6.1. She also lists the Hyundai Sonata SE turbo that makes the list at 6.6 times. Basically saying that the POS is faster than our Camaros.

I accept that part, it's true but I have a problem with the 6.7 s 0-60. I've ran a 5.9 according to my iPhone dyno, I'm pretty sure that's not almost a whole second off. Agreed though, sometimes we have to accept a 2011 Mustang is faster.

i sent a little email over to forbes at readers@forbes.com to tell them that they used incorrect numbers and that they should update the article. feel free to do the same

the v6 camaro really should be in the list. 6.7 is silly

I read the same things. I don't think it was an Apples to Apples comparison. I mean they had four door cars that I don't consider sports cars.

I don't really pay much attention to what the magazines have to say...they all want to sell copies so the more they play shit up the more people will buy their rag to see what was said good or bad... If you love your ride (like I do) what does it matter what they say or print... .
