test drove 2013 camaro SS manual... not impressed

it's fast, but not as fast as you'd expect for 426 HP, and handling is horrible, felt closer to how my toyota avalon feels than how the 987 feels

very disappointed for a $40,000 car, but glad to see the boxster is still #1

P.S. when i took the SS back and told the dealer he handed me the keys to a 580 hp Camaro ZL1... told him thanks but no thanks, I didn't think it would handle any better than the SS

P.S.S. possible explanation of why it handles like a brick: SS weighs 3,900 lbs
