Go to the 4th page and read what they say about the Camaro's interior bring claustrophobic. Was it necessary to say that.

brings me to a review of a mercedes...

I ended my subscription with them a long time ago. They are rediculous with the anti-GM biasness. There was a comparison between the Camaro and Corvette, and one of the statistics was "compensates for..." I'll never buy that magazine again.

Dont read this often but im going to agree with the small back seat. I never take my car when we are going to have friends in the back seat. Someone always complains.

Yes it does, but read the 2nd sentence of the first paragraph on the 4th page:

It envelopes you with its swoopy coupe greenhouse, but doesn't make you feel claustrophobic like some other performance "coupes" (cough * camaro * cough).

Find a 1990 Hyundai Excel, put a BMW badge on it and give it to them to test and i betcha, Motor Trend will give it a A+ rating.

sure the volt and silverado 2500 wining car and truck of the year must off been a mirage.

excuuuuuse me, they gave a couple of gm vehicles a good review a couple times, that doesn't make up for bashing most gm cars and trucks most of the time. I wouldn't expect you to believe me you drive a ford...

I do agree with ffrcobra though, but they might see through the fake badging when they don't get the usual kick-back check

I hate that trash mag

Like they never beat up on Ford or Dodge or anyone else....give me a break.
Remember this MotorTrend comparison... $55K GT500 vs $90k+ Z06 and GT-R...that was a fair comparison. Lol
Sometimes when they point out a weakness in a car, people get really bent out of shape. Don't sweat it...it's just a car rag...not the be all and end all of automotive journalism.
The same guys that say the magazines are crap are also the first to post when they say something positive or have a fast time for their favorite car.

Yes it was unnecessary to pile it on in the Mercedes write up. The Camaro is indeed claustraphobic to some. My girlfriends dad even commented on it when I took him for a spin..as did my mother, sister, and friend. Still looks badass on the outside

Better yet, put an M3 badge on it and see the reviews roll.

OMG, someone said something bad about the Camaro, let's go grab our pitchforks!!!



Question: Why is anyone still reading Motor Trend?

OMG they hate toyota.

OMG they hate the gtr

You guys have to realize that it's their job to pick at cars. You'll notice that the gtr was once car of the year, yet they rag on the LC problem (deservedly) all the time.
