I've driven several mustangs, the latest being a GT convertible rental that I had for almost a week. I really liked the car but I didn't love it enough to buy one. I'm also not a fan boy of either; I don't necessarily like Ford or Chevy, for that matter.
Reasons I didn't/won't buy one:
-Body roll is bad IMO for a "sports/muscle" car. The handling is just not where it needs to be. The Camaro has much more of a track-ready feel.
-Mustangs are everywhere
-The interior styling is not the best
- 5.0 is underwhelming..in power delivery, sound, etc...especially in comparison to the 62. It is much too civilized for me.
The one reason I would argue in favor of the Mustang is it's practicality. Is it a Town & Country? No, but for the class that it IS, it is fairly practical. If you are talking in terms of the ease of driving, good visibility, storage, mild mannered, etc...the Mustang has the edge over the Camaro. For some, I believe that is enough for Ford to take the sale over Chevy.
