That would be AMAZING!
Actually, this would be horrible news. If Ford had to discontinue the Mustang it would mean the pony car market is not profitable as they're the ones making the money (Mustang heavily outsells the other pony cars). If the Mustang dies, the Camaro would go with it, as well as the US auto industry.

I LOVE GM vehicles, and particularly Chevy's, but would buy any GM vehicle if I had the $$...Hopefully, one day, soon enough, a 5th Gen CAMARO! Dave_O

Alternatively, it could mean that the market share of Ford would no longer be Ford's, and Chevrolet could split that market with Dodge. It might not be a significant enough market for 3 companies to take, but it might be profitable for 2.

I am so sad to have to report this but I felt I must. Report this that is..oh ya and tell you that its right from the source.
I heard the same thing from my brother's wife's cousin's husband's paperboy that has a brother that works for the company that delivers snacks to the mustang plant.

Sounds like the same source as yesterday's "GM is cancelling the Camaro" thread. Satire, isn't great?

So wait, the OP is saying that the 2010 Mustang isn't coming out?

So basically Ford coming out with the 2010 Mustang, then unveiling it and then oh wait we're not coming out with it?

I find that very hard to believe. The Mustang will still outsell the Camaro... It always has and it always will because its cheaper...
