Please tell me something besides "LOL, Ford is better!" It's pretty tiring.
Whoa dude, you have read nothing I said or just ignored it. I never said Ford is better, I am just doing what everyone else is doing, just on the otherside of the fence. I never said the mustang would be 2800 pounds, just that some tech and procedures could be used from the twins to give the Mustang the projected 200 pound weight loss, which by the way is still far more than 2800 pounds. Lets face it, we don''t even know which version of the Alpha platform the Camaro will be on, the ATS version, or the larger and heavier CTS version. We probably know MORE about the mustang right now than the 6th gen is some respects and that isn't much. I just find it hilarious the people saying that there is no way the mustang will compare even though as much is known about the 6th gen as the next Mustang. One thing you can't deny is the C5 and next gen mustang will be sold side by side for at least a couple years and here ford will have the advantage point blank knowing where to aim and how hard. No we don't know much, but there is some serious common sense you are ignoring and continue to do so.
