Then the next guy says that 6 gears aren't needed. Well duh, but since family sedans and trucks are coming with them it is considered top of the line. Ford still doesn't offer a 6-speed manual. Chevy did that back in 93(late 80's if you wanna count the vette). You ask for what technological advance the Camaro has over the Mustang then when they are listed you dismiss them as unnecessary.

I'm sorry but DOD, Voice activation, 6 gears(manual or stick V-6 or V-8), IRS, a chasis good for 200+ MPH(not the 155 the Mustang is governed to), 400HP and well over 20MPG are all technological advancements that the Camaro has over the Mustang.

There is so much here that I thought about correcting/making a reply to, but I think I'll just comment on you last statement and leave it at that. So, the Camaro chassis is engineered for 200mph? Really? Enlighten us on the specifics.

You have to give props to Ford though, for their marketing of the Mustang that has kept it in production this whole time while our f-bodies faded from existance 6 long yrs ago ().

Sure I could get a hell of a deal on a GT and toss a supercharger on it for less money than the 2SS I have on order but I love what the Camaro is bringing to the table too much to get a Mustang instead. And all the stock vs. stock comparisons really are kind of a moot point to us enthusiasts. Most of us will be modding the car in some way or another so it'll be more like who had the most money to spend on parts. I know one of the first things I'll be doing when I get my car is tossing it on the dyno to see what she's got!!!!

I'm the type of person that respects anyone that has a great looking car that is actually fast. Ford, Dodge, Chevy, Honda, BMW, 4 banger, V6, V8, V10, I don't care. If it can give me a run for the money on the track it's cool in my book. It's funny to me how some people are so against other brands and they haven't ever even owned or driven them in their life. I look forward to spending hours in parking lots talking to Mustang owners and the many others that share the same love for cars as me

Well said.
