Ok, thankx for the confession (now say three Hail Mary's and an Our Father) just kiddin.

I hate that you really sound like you are not happy ordering the Mustang. In the meantime, shoot us some pix of that pretty candy apply girl.. You might like it, I didn't though - didn't like that it rode like a truck.

Good Luck....

Congrats on choosing the next best thing!
The new Mustangs are still respectable cars.

The Chally is the next best thing, haha. The Mustang is third.

I'm with the we want to see pics crowd!

I love the Mustangs, I just happen to love the Camaro more. Enjoy, I am sure she will be beautiful.

I dunno. To me, the Chally is too much like the Camaro. You've got raw power (425hp SRT8), retro styling (It's a beautiful car too), understeer (unfortunately), and some weight problems. Sorry Cammy, but you're a pretty big girl at 3900lbs, but still smaller than Chally's 4140lbs.
Plus, () I like the new Mustangs. Ford finally pulled out the big guns with the 5.0.

Don't despair! I just picked up a black GT/CS 5.0 coupe last week and absolutely love it. I was torn between a Challenger RT, the Camaro SS, and the Mustang. In the end, the Mustang was a better fit for me. All three are good cars though. The mustang is an absolute blast to drive. I also opted for the 3.73 rear end. I doubt you'll have any regrets once you take delivery. Also, once you play around with the synch system you'll wonder how you ever lived without it (it's that good).

Sounds like a poor excuse to me.
Nothing could make me buy a Mustang.

I like all cool cars. Congrats. I would own both but it would mean selling another toy I am not ever willing to part with.

Enjoy!

Sorry man....a big dude in a small car....looks silly, not cool. My friend is 6'2" and his knees were against the dash in a Mustang....he rode in my 2010 Camaro and was amazed at all the room and power. I hope your choice works out for you. I think you'll be second guessing yourself for some time....especially when you see everyone's eyes glued to the Camaro passing by your Mustang.

Have you actually sat in a Camaro and played with the seat settings? I am 6'1 and have inches to spare at teh top. A Mustang is nice, but it will never be your Camaro.

"I'm too tall for the Camaro, so I went with a smaller car!"

Sounds like standard Mustang Owner Logic.

Good luck with the Mustang, I am sure you will be happy with it. Post some pictures when you get it and have it cleaned up.
