I have owned over 100 cars in my lifetime. Each of them had bits and pieces of the accolades you espoused of in your post. None of them had all.
My honest opinion? My 1989 Mustang LX was the best bang for the buck. $12k (fairly inexpensive for the time) got you 225hp (14 second car), good looks for the era, A/C, power windows/locks, a sunroof, and a set of Eagle GT tires. I believe Motor Trend touted it as best bang for the buck that year.
Anyway, my 2SS has impressive features for sure. But it fails in many areas, too.
Sorry, but until you've owned a number of cars, you have no grounded experience in what the world has to offer for different types of cars.

I'm a little offended by this, myself being 23yo. Even though you may be speaking for the majoirty of us youngsters, you should not assume it for all. Just because I'm probably half your age does not mean that I haven't been around or driven many cars.
Growing up we never had any vehicles with power windows/locks, sunroofs, or a/c. That 89 mustang sounds loaded for the time. If you compare the '10/11/12 camaro with the competitors it is lacking many of the tech features that, to me, are pointless.
I have driven every chrsler(and their associated companies) vehicle made in the last 5 years and I don't mean just a test drive. I mean daily. I also drove for quite some time the older models of chevy impala, camaro, lumina, pontiac g6, boneville ssei, dodge intrepid, durango, a CTS, DTS, '13 mustang gt, and several trucks.
Granted my driving experience has been with vehicles from 1979-current but I still have more variety than most people twice my age.
Now, IMO of what's important to me, I still have to say the camaro I currently have is the best bang for the buck that I have driven. Still want my lambo though.
