Fastest cars under $30k. Camaro doesn't cut it...
Both Mustangs make the list but the Camaro doesn't. The article states that the V6 is too slow, at 6.7 seconds, and the SS was to pricey at $31,795.

6.7 seconds? are they talking about Challenger?
LLT's typically run sub 6.

Yeah, they made a mistake....I can run my V6 in under 7 seconds and I don't know what I'm doing, lol. Someone who knows how to drive this can do it in under 6, easy.

I've been looking at Mustangs for the last year and I could never find the 5.0 GT under 30k.....so I just laugh when they say under 30k...

Yeah, I found a few recently....but they were all 29,8 or something to that extent....not to mention they were discounted only because the 2012's are on the lot..

Actually you can order them that way devoid of almost all content of consequence. The delivery fee still takes it over 30k though.

Thats What im thinking, no way does camaro need 6.7 seconds to reach 60mph. They have no idea how to drive. Are they sure it was in gear.

Ford lowered the base trim price for 2012 just so they could advertise the GT starting under $30K. A base 2012 GT including destination is now $29,995. Unfortunately, the base interior is made of recycled milk jugs.

Its not a biased article, its just that they are using a biased/ stupid website for the times.

I stand corrected, last time I looked it was the 2011 model year.
