Free of charge AFTER the class action lawsuit. They also did something with the exhaust manifolds and the tune IIRC.

well now that we have strayed a bit off topic lol I have a question why is it that both the 2010 mustang and Camaro look so much better in person? Does photography not have the ability to see the dimensions of all the body creases?

im gonna do a fun little test if I fully load the camaro the mustang and the chally witch muscle car will be the highest

So a fully loaded 2ss comes out to 46k (those 21 wheels cost a Sh%t load)

a fully loaded Gt premium comes out to. 41k (accesory packages included to )

a fully loaded Srt8 comes out to 46k (there were not allot of options to choose from)


the mustang wins

What did you like/disslike about driving the Camaro?

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."

Engine, transmission was very good. Handling was pretty good although the heft showed sometimes. Exterior liked everything ,except the grille. Interior I didnt like at all. Felt plain, hard and weird, but bland. Gauges where hard to read, and visibility I didnt like. The trunk was soooooooo small. BA sound system was really good as well.
In the end I liked that the Mustang has a Navigation w sync, I like the interior a lot!! The real aluminum, on the dash, the shifter etc etc aluminum trim soft touch ip. Also the car felt light, tossable, sweet turn in too! The steering was awesome much crisper than the Camaro. The trunk was a nice size with a good opening. To me there were certain things that would make the Camaro a good weekend car,but not a good daily, but the Mustang does both jobs well good daily driver and good weekend car! I hope this is good if any other questions just ask

Meh.. I got nothin against mustangs, but I just don't like the 2010. I saw one in person the other day as it was approaching in my rear view mirror. The front looks "okay" to me, but the rear is just horrible IMO. Also those style wheels are horrible IMO as well. Interior is definately an improvement over the previous mustangs, so that is one thing that they did right with the car, not an "exciting" interior, but it looks like a much more quality interior compared the the previous mustangs. Overall, I just don't like look of the new stangs.

Congrats on the new ride tho!
