Explain to me how GM will fix the Camaros blind spot problem for the 5th Gen? They won't.
Most cars have minimal blindspots as the manufacture try's to prevent this in the design from the beginning. Most cars do not have a C pillar the size of Texas. I'm glad it hasen't caused you much of a problem, the automotive press disagrees. The Camaro has a great look though it comes at the price of many compromises. Performance all the way to safety.
Matt's review was true. He just mentions what has been stated by all media before. So he likes the new 5.0? What faults does it have? It does have a better engine, better handling and better all around performance. It's quality is much better then the Camaro SS too. Ford benchmarked the M3. The 5.0 is faster then an M3 on a drag strip and handles just as good on a road course for far less cash. Did I mention it makes the Camaro SS look like a linebacker trying to run a marathon? The new Camaro Z28 will not own the new GT500. Will it be as fast as a new GT500? maybe. Quicker? possibly.
Just a heads up...Ford doesn't sit on it's hands waiting for GM to make the next move. The next generation Mustang will also be lighter and smaller overall. Probably a better car then the next Camaro too 
Matt Farah is far from stupid. If one can get his own automotive review show, known website and get sponsored for all sort's of Automotive events for being stupid, sign me up.

Ill disagree with that statement. I would take an ls3 over a 5.0 any day of the week and twice on sunday.
The 2011 5.0 beat the camaro SS by .1 tenth of a second in the last road course test I read (I think it was road and track)
Guess what both cars are trapping about the same and both have run about the same 1/4 mile times.
Higher quality...ok if you say so. You got any hard data to support this?
The price is about the same. Although you get more to start with on the camaro (such as brembos and pirelli pzero tires).
We get it you want to have sex with the new mustang and you think the new camaro is a failure somehow when it is selling better than any camaro has in 30 years.
Guess what...we have seen your kind many times...I would say about 3 times a day.
