Great article.. I wonder if it was published anywhere else, particularly in a US mag or site.

I'm liking the new Camaro, sucks they ahvent sorted out everything on the chassis.. Will be real nice to see the SS version with the 505hp LS7!

Not likely without rewriting.. He tailored it to the poms..

New and old — there are little cues. Like the way Prince William looks like Princess Diana; you can see the resemblance.

If I still lived in my home town, this would be the car I would want. It’s a bit like the Cayman. It’s for the guy who can’t quite make it to the 911. That’s what this is: I think the Camaro is the Cayman to the Corvette. You can justify it to the wife — look honey, there’s two seats in the back. The kids can sit back there. But what clinches it is that it’s a car that people will lust after.

I like the Cayman better than the 911, guess I'll be changing lanes with Jay on this one.

Not his best anology ever, but he still rocks.

I get what he means by comparing it to the Cayman.. but the Camaro will atleast have the same power as the Corvette

Ahhhhh...

no...

uhh..

You didn't just say "like the Cayman better than the 911" did you? I did not know those letters could be strung together to form such a sentence... can it be possible? Those words don't make grammatical sense in that order... :shock:

And this from.. a 911 driver???

*faint*

Kind of reminds me of me when I was little.
