As if 5th gen owners didn't seem snobby enough, claiming their cars are better built than high-end German cars, and better looking than exotics, now you have the best car ever made?

Give me a break.

Why don't you walk around at the next car show telling people that? Video tape their reactions for me.

As I was driving my LT the other day, I was pondering how amazing these cars are as a complete package. To the point where, when you factor in the long list of positive attributes about the 5th gen, one has a decent case that these cars may be some of the best ever made, if not THE best.

So I pose a question, name me a car that satisfies all these requirements:

-looks better than a 5th gen
-offers similar or better performance
-is even remotely as SAFE
-offers as unique of a driving experience
-widely loved by the public
-great aftermarket support
-close in price (when new)
-similar or better features
-Has a strong road presence

Any car I think of that comes close fails to satisfy at least 2-3 of these attributes. Granted I'm 22 so I wasn't around during the muscle car age, but I do know those cars weren't safe.

So can you name anything better? As far as I'm concerned, until we are dethroned, this is the best car ever made. Mainly because of everything you get for the price. Its the total package, not one particular thing.

Edit:

All I'm really saying is that I don't think there has ever been a car in history that has offered what these cars do for the price, which to ME, makes it the best car ever, until it is dethroned.
Op I'll answer your question.

Have you ever heard of a car called the mustang lol.

On the measurables, the mustang is the camaro s equal or better or slightly lesser.

Price competitive check
Features check
Performance check
Loved by others check
Huger after market support check
Unique driving experience check
Safety check


Only thing that can be argued is the most subjective thing ever, looks. Looks is totally subjective, it can't be argued. IMO the mustang looks 100x Brett than the camaro, but bc this a camaro forum here 99.999% believe the camaro looks better.

IMO the challenger looks better than both of them

Bit neither car is best ever made

Lol @ straight line. Im talking about going in circles. And based on my search data, they are too unreliable to win. Lamborghini tried to market their cars to race teams, but they did not meet endurance standards. (yes even the new ones.) They blow up.

Nope, I will. I am glad somebody caught that. I left it there for the other guy to catch it, but he never did. I know it is supposed to be you are or you're.
