FYI: The Camaro in that road test was a 2SS, which is the heaviest SS coupe configuration you can buy. It's not like they selected the lightest weight Camaro SS they could have for their test, which would have been a 1SS coupe. The Camaro also did not have the performance exhaust OR the auto trans options, which the Mustang did have.

I generally agree though, I would have liked to see a GT Perf Pack car (manual trans) compared to a 1SS manual to see how they compare. Auto vs. auto would be icing on the cake.
