Id like to kick his teeth down his throat. What a POS. His mom probably peddles him to work in her basket on her 3 wheel bike.

The author's sesquipedalian proclivities belie his obvious anti-hetero tendencies.

This guy swings like the porch rocker in a tornado. He is either a woman trapped in a mans body or he used to be a woman who hated men and is now a man who hates himself. Why he can't manage a genuine point in his article clearly states that his drivvle is only intended as entertainment for his few mentally distubed pals that buy this paper only for its ability to absorb dog piddle.

It's just another small example of the elitism that's plaguing this country. It's like all the talk of raising the gas tax to increase the total price back to $4 per gallon to "encourage" us to buy hybrids. Because, after all, all of us great unwashed are too stupid to make that decision for ourselves. If we continue to purchase our SUV's and musclecars, it's because we just don't understand that we're destroying the planet. Thank God we have intellectual powerhouses like this guy, as well as men like Al Gore and (cough) Neil Young, to set the rest of us morons straight.

This boy should head back to his favorite gay bar and suck down a few stiff ones.

The Camaro is a car that never should have come back. The only people that like Camaros are meth using losers with mullets. As a society we need to consurve resources and making a car with a big engine just so it can do burnouts is irresponsible and wasteful. Let's hope that the new GM CEO put in place by Obama will do the right thing and stop the Camaro (and Hummers andn SUVs),

The thing I love about America is there will always be some guy to say "F you" to any effort to control the totally thoughtless wasteful excessive destruction of what's left of our planet and its resources. Go ahead boys and drool over the latest macho toy from Detroit. If they made a car that got one mile to the gallon, looked like a tank and ate people while it chewed the scenery, someone would buy it while raising his middle finger to the rest of us.

The 69 Nova "hot rod" that I drove up here to S.F. from L.A to go to school in 19 -o- 78 was, in retrospect not very good. Solid rear axel, four near useless drum brakes, very unresponsive power steering (as in a dozen spins of the wheel to make a u turn). Recently I've rented a Mustang for work, and found it to be about the same performance quality, though a bit better here and there (less crude engineering but cheaper materials). So for the Camaro, no big whoop. I'm really hoping that Detroit at least gives us if not a super-panacea-mobile like the Prius, at least something that catches our imaginations (that also isn't just a chimera). Lastly, I don't know why MM included the Corvette in his list of infamy. As much as I don't like the styling, it has evolved and improved over the decades and is actually competitive. I even know some one who's family owns one and it has been confirmed (with reservations) that it is a "real" car...

Entertaining and thought provoking as usual. Thanks Mark. There will always be a market for the muscle car, if a person wants to pay for some American horsepower, who is anyone to judge? I do agree that it is irresponsible of Chevy to revive the Camaro. Eventually, enough of the population will convert to renewable energy for essentially everything.

Why is GM even trying? I know very few people who own or would buy an American car. I've always bought Japanese cars because they are far superior to any car that America belches out.

Let's look past the anti-choice posture assumed by MM and the class warfare rants posted by others that seem to stereotypically link the Camaro with mullets and meth. The basic premise of the column is (or at least should be) is that the new Camaro is a POS car, coming online at precisely the wrong time. I can understand GM wanting to challenge the Ford Mustang, which appears to be an overall better car, but to me the new Camaro is emblematic of GM's R&D problems. No foresight; no imagination; no verve (soul). End result - bankruptcy, or at least that where GM needs to be. Yeah, GM builds a few decent cars (case in point, the Corvette, which in terms of value has no competition), but the company's overall approach to development seems to be stuck in the '80s. It would be interesting to see if Jobs or Wozniak would be interested in the CEO position at GM - that would shake things up.

I don't see why you people think we need these big wasteful engines. They are so yesterday. I hope our wonderful president stops the manufacturing of these fossil fuel demons. I took my Smart Car to Lake Tahoe last month and it only took 22 hours.
