Forgive my online gaming parlance here, but I think this is worthy of a big, authentic "pwned."

Someone needs to post this on Camaro5 so they can start making excuses or claims that Ford paid off MT.

Comgrats Ford, sounds like the engineers really stomped the competition.

pwned doesn't even begin to say it. All seven judges ranked the Mustang GT #1. Five of the seven judges rated the V6 Mustang over the Camaro SS.

Think about that some more.

Now smile while you think about the reaction on Camaro5.

I'm far from a Camaro basher, I think they're pretty sweet cars, but I have to admit that I agree with everyone who says the styling is getting old. When the Camaro first came out I thought it looked great! Now that it's been around for a year or so, I've gotten used to the lines and they haven't settled well with me. Very interesting results from all of the editors.

Not sure why they used the SRT8. The Challenger R/T should be compared to the Camaro SS and Mustang GT. The SRT8 is Dodge's Shelby GT500 level vehicle.

Mustang GT at the top is no surprise . . . Hyundai Genesis near the top is a big surprise!

Been a Ford/Mustang guy my entire life. I'm on GT #3 right now-lol But, I like both the Camaro SS & Challenger SRT8.

Just to try something different, I considered buying an SS. As soon as I sat in one, I was instantly turned off. Still liked the car, but not enough for me to switch brands.

SRT8 is cool too! But, I am wary of Chryslers quality. Didn't like it enough to switch brands either.

Guess I'll always be a Mustang guy!

Heck, I was happy to see the V6 drag race.

And good for Hyundai. Although I doubt they ever expected to see themselves in THIS comparison!

Because according to the article, all the Challenger fanboys were pi**ed when the R/T got stomped the year before.
