But honestly money will be the only limeting factor with these cars and the aftermarket.

off the showroom floor the Mustang with brembo brakes and 3:73 gears will out run the 2010 Camaro.

Whoever has the deepest pockets will be fastest always has been and always will be that way.
Mustang 3603 lbs (estimated)
Camaro 3849 lbs

246 lb difference. 14 hp difference. Take away 140 lbs roughly. You got a 1 tenth advantage. Then factor in the extra 30 torque the camaro has, then look at the gearing and smaller rims of the mustang...wow looks like a close race.

Then do full exhaust, cam (cams) and tune on both cars and re-run, I think I know what will happen then.

Mustang v6 highway mpg= 30 mpg

Camaro v6 highway mpg= 29mpg

1 mpg difference.

City camaro is 18 and mustang is 19. I guess if you combine both numbers that would be 2mpg difference.
