2. Looks ARE subjective, you might love the front of the V6 Camaro while there are others would disagree with you, I love the way the GT500 looks, you obviously don't and hence looks are subjective. The Mustang is unattractive to you as obese women are unattractive to me, does it me they are ugly? Not at all.

I love the Camaro SS and ZL1 but I'm not blind to the fact that the Mustang is better than it in a lot of aspects. Couldn't I sell my Camaro SS for a Mustang and it has nothing to do with looks and everything to do with the emotional bond I have with my car that I have gained from having it for the last two years.

Also as Motorhead said "the Camaro is the latest fad" and it's true. GM got great marketing from those god aweful Transformers movies and now the Camaro appeals to a bunch of the non-car people. If I had a $1 for every time the kids two doors down have called my car bumblebee, I would be able to install a CAI, Headers and a Cat-back, also as stated above the Mustang is a half a decade design and Ford never stopped making them, they made the good ones, ugly (subjective) ones and bad ones but they never stopped making them...
I'm not saying that all Mustangs are ugly. I happen to like the front end on the GT500 Mustangs some and it was a very very wise move on Fords part to make the GT500 grill standard on all Mustangs for 2013 along with changing the horrible tail lights from the past couple years. They are on the right path now its up to their design team as to the fate of the car.
