The C6 was pure anti-american bs. Par for the course.
But the Camaro review is pretty much what people said here in the US. 4th gens interior is sub-par, even for its time. The V6 camaro has always been a bit underpowered for its size.
The C6 stuff is just flat out crap. We already had this convo in another thread.

they're totally biased. they love everything that's european, even if it's a ****box on three wheels that runs 22 second in the quarter mile. give them an american car, and they trash it like there was no tomorrow. some of the stuff they said about the c6 was absurd...."clunky gearbox"? the t-56 is one of the world's best 6-spds. these guys are idiots...

I love how they were comparing it to the 911, saying that their 911 was so much better, even though it costs $20k more. Then they lined up for that drag race, and the C6 skooled the 911 
EAT IT, BITCH!!!! (sorry, just had to get that out)

there is no way the c6 should have lost to an NSX. that kid doesn't know how to drive. neither does their track-test driver, for that matter. he ran off the track so many times. you'd think they'd get people who actually know how to drive a car for a car show.

That C6 would have eaten that NSX with me driving it. That guy was wanting to loose, you could tell.
I must say coming from my point of view that they ARE very good reviews. None the less they shouldn't have hounded on the leaf springs like they did. They made it out to be a bad thing that it has superlight weight composite flextures instead of heavy steel inertial springs. Did you know that F1 uses "leaf springs" if that's what they want to call them. It's called a flexture, F1 front a-arms have em so they must be bad.  . I'm actually seriously contimplating calling them up and giving them hell about the leaf spring comments. It was nothing more than a rude incorrect remark towards a very fine sports car.
In the drag race I'd like to see the cost compariosn to all of those cars. For $20,000 you could twin turbo that vette and install better wheels/tires to out handle and out class all of those rare sports cars.
