LOL... was thinking the same thing, until I realized this was one of those live streams. For some reason they can only be done in a square ratio.

Then it's another example of reality tv ruining the art of broadcast.

I'm trying not be jaded here but it would be nice to have someone review the 1LE that actually knew what the car was ahead of time. I appreciate an outside review but at the same time an enthusiast review would be welcome as well. Sometimes an enthusiast can be more critical than a neutral third party.

For example, popping the hood on a 1LE means nothing as its a handling package and the power output doesn't get touched. The people buying this car know that. Maybe just touching upon the specs is fine but don't dwell on it. It's the same as the SS and V6 models.

After watching the autoblog review videos, I can see why people get upset with journalists in the field. Hands are moving way too much.

I agree, some of these "reviewers" are complete tools and useless. Their journalism and video skills are terrible...

Everyone is so concerned with being the "first" to get content out that production value and a well thought out execution go by the wayside.

I'm kind go aggravated that I didn't get an opportunity to cover this event. Although dealing with the goings on at Club Motorsports has kept me fairly busy this year. Even so, I would of made time for this.

Meet some of them in person, and it explains a lot.....

...At a recent Camaro media thing...one guy was discussing the minivan media event he had just came from for his publication...

On another occasion...the person I was riding with was twitching the wheel of the car around a sweeping corner like it was a hot potato...we weren't even going fast enough to push me sideways...

I need Chris to put the black out tailights on this rear end and change the third brake light to z06 clear. The same for the markers at the bottom.


And then I need him to make the calipers the same color as the bow tie
