I'm glad that I own/drive a Camaro and don't have to another one out of every 10 cars that I pass. I like our uniqueness. I thought the flair would die the 1st year, but it hasn't - I still get so many looks every single time I'm driving my car. My two cents.

Not only that but the Mustang seems to attract a less mature audience. I know we have our own obnoxious Camaro drivers, but perhaps due to their larger concentrations in some areas they give the impression of most every Mustang driver is a "Detroit Ricer".
Just yesterday I pulled into a strip mall to pick up some dinner. The lot was full of only a handful of cars. At the other end of the lot was a 2010/11 mustang parked there. it looked like it had aftermarket wheels on it. It was about 25 spaces away from me as I parked. I was in line paying for my food and I hear this revving outside (through the closed windows of the restaurant) I can see the mustang all the way across the lot sitting there revving his motor over and over to high RPM and not moving. This continues for another 30 seconds while people inside the restaurant start craning their necks and looking over in disgust at the person ruining their meal all the way across the parking lot. I can tell the people are saying "What an &$$hole!" to each other.
Finally, the guy pulls out and leaves... only in true "Ricer" fashion, he drives across the lot in 1st gear at 35MPH, we we get to hear his awesome aftermarket exhaust at 5000 RPMs the whole way.
People were shaking their heads and laughing.
