Got this from another forum....

Across the pond reading the July issue of Top Gear magazine and they have a shootout among the Corvette Carbon, Camaro SS, Challenger SRT-8 392 and the Boss Mustang.

Conclusions were as follows:

Rolling through the tunnel onto the track the next day, there isn't much doubt in any of our minds which of the four wins here. The Vette, for all its brilliance, prices itself out of the ballpark. Muscle cars should be affordable brutes. Which leaves three.

The Camaro is a great modern representation of its storied forebears, but its cartoonish appearence and lack of driver feedback place it third. We hope the new ZL-1 is more involving. The Challenger, the most classically correct muscle car, takes the runner-up step for its gutsy engine, and road-owning presence. But, like the race that will be run in a couple of hours, it was always going to be the extraordinary Boss 302 Mustang which was going to win.

All the other cars here are good, but the sorted Stang is a new great, and close enough to worry the Vette. A Pony car has never been faster, handled better or felt as complete than this. Good work, Ford. Good work.

 

Please give us a linky! Please!

Is it going to be on the new British season?

 

Awesome!

 

Now we just need to see the three opinionated limeys flog it on their program come this next series on the 26th...if it makes it this series which I hope it does.

 

This

 

I so hope the Boss is on the new season and that the Hamster admits to buying one. The question, of course, is which one of us on this forum is Richard Hammond?

 

Sweet! Can't wait to see it.

 

Nice. Is anyone here surprised by the outcome?

 

Where can we get a copy of the magazine?

 

My boss (no pun intended) has a subscription to Top Gear and he said that he usually gets a month's issue a few weeks after it hits the stands in the U.K. He just got his June issue within the past two weeks, so he expects his July issue to arrive in mid-July.

The local B&N still has the May 2011 issue on the news stand, so it might be a while before we can get an issue here.

 

Thanks, I'll check my local B&N. This will be a good one to collect.

 

mag or show? I'm hoping the show.

 

Magazine. I couldn't wait and just ordered one on ebay. There are three left so order yours now.

I absolutely love the show. Itching for them to do a piece about the Boss and have the Stig run a lap. Doesn't Hammond own a '67?

 

 

Well that didn't take long. The last three copies are gone.

 

thanks for the link 5.0!!!

 

i had to go purchase it b4 saying TY. I knew they wouldnt last!!

 

No doubt. Less than $20 delivered to your door. Worth it not to have to drive around trying to find it.

 

Yep, GT500. Blue w/ white strip iirc.
