They will complain about cheap interiors and some other weird American nitpicking. But I think with the numbers we are seeing today and the engineering that went into the cars, they'll pick the Camaro as a winner because of its performance. Even the V6 is a powerhouse, but independent suspension and weight distribution -- this thing should handle, too.

The Camaro is going to get Kick Ass reviews from Hammond, but not sure about Clarkson.

I'm predicting:

Hammond will LOVE IT.
Clarkson will like it, but call things like the 4 pack gauge, sunroof, and interior quality unecessary/cheap.
And May... probably won't like it very much.

Their biggest complaint will be the plastic interior. After that, possibly visibility. They will probably say that its about time the Camaro had an independent rear (they have an obsession with suspension tech don't they?) and it makes the Mustang look anchient
