How is that possible? I give you a thumb down for excessive bias.
The V6 Camaro will not beat a Mustang out of the factory, but I'd be careful about modded ones. The LLT responds unusually well to mods.
The 5.0L Mustang is still as rumored as the Z28. I doubt that the hype around that motor will put it above a 2011 Camaro anyway. It'll make the race closer than it is now, but remember that the 5.0L will weigh more than the current motor. Maybe that'll take the chip off of the shoulder of current Mustang owners who feel that their lightweight but technically inferior Ford will win the scale. I'm sorry, but winning on the scale is not the same as posting impressive times at the track. If you guys really cared about weight, you'd all be rolling without back seats.
It is possible that the car is better for you. The ride will be different, although technically inferior; the heritage is Ford, not GM; the look is American but different than the alternatives; the underdog factory makes the Mustang GT a fun car to tune because it can be improved to outperform the competition and come back from behind.
