Teh weight is also what helps the Mustang get better fuel economy.

Until Zeta II or Alpha come out with lighter weight... More HP is the way to offset the differences. This is easily achieved too.. but for some reason GM just won't just be aggressive in these one on one battles. The 3.6L for instance should and could easily be at 330HP by now. I have personally seen dyno data with minimum upgrades pushing out 350HP. The LS3 is easily bumped to 450HP.. and as I demonstrated with my own Vette... and too my surprise even more that is easily achieved for less than $600

Knowing which V-6 is faster is like knowing which of two ugly chicks is the virgin. Doesn't really matter to me.

too bad the new mustangs are ugly...the rear is too high and bulky...its needs to be more svelte ...the front looks good but the overall car is lacking and looks like a sneaker

I love the looks of the new mustang. I think the camaro doesn't look that good from the rear either. So it's a tie for me in that repect.

you would think the designers would put more time into the back end of our cars considering how often other challengers must see them.....

True, that's one of my turnoff's too with the Camaro.
Thank God I don't have to look at it if I don't want to.

no doubt the Duratec 3.7 is a great engine... it's a long time waiting for something new from Ford...
