        &lt;p&gt;Of course nobody&#039;s right all the time, but I know of quite a few GM owners who&#039;s previous rides were GM, and future rides will be GM. Personally I&#039;ve dabbled in all 3 major American brands, but GM is the mainstay.&lt;br /&gt;
-&lt;br /&gt;
As far as automatic being more fuel efficient than standard shift? I find that incredible. Automatics are becoming more efficient, and one thing that really helped was establishing a 1:1 lock in overdrive years ago BUT an automatic transaxle nonetheless is much more complex and power loss has always been the price to pay. Fine-tuning shift points can help, but isn&#039;t that gain offset by the power loss?&lt;br /&gt;
-&lt;br /&gt;
Aside from that the Camaro is ugly? I missed that. What I seen looks a hell of a lot better than most of the stuff on the roads today.&lt;/p&gt;
