First you say the Camaro is a "true" sports car, then you finally admit that Chevy and Ford have different aims.
Does the word "duplicitous" mean anything to you?
For perfecting the art of speaking out of both sides of your mouth, I award you first member of my ignore list.
Congratulations!

Yup, happens to me at car shows. I'm pretty knowledgeable on car stats, etc., and when I hear "my car does this", "my car makes that" I'm sorely tempted to correct them with real numbers. Sometimes I do, most times I just walk away.

I wasn't on the car scene when these cars hit the streets. But my buddies and I did start buying them and racing them in the 90s.

Those were my times! Back in the day, I had a new '82 GT, '83 GT, '85 GT, '93 LX 5.0, etc. (see att'd pic). Stock for stock, my real world experience was that the Camaros handled better but I was always able to take them in acceleration runs without much problem. Your mileage may vary ...

I think the magazines give us a pretty official indication of what these cars can do and how they compare to each other. Without that then we'd have everyone making wild claims everywhere none of which would be even close to the truth.
