The second time I saw it, I liked it, but I thought it was a mess. I didnt like how the center stack was put together, and I wasnt a big fan of the trim they used.

The THIRD time came after seeing both the loaded Mustang GT and CTS-V... So i was a bit more critical. Seeing both those cars which imo have great interiors didnt make the Maro's look very good.

IMO the Exterior of the Camaro is its strongest point. The engine is a good one too, but id rather have a med-weight car with med-power than a high-weight car with high-power if they can run with one another.

That being said, even if I were a buyer of the new Stang, id wait for the 5.0L

lil_chef · 05-14-2009, 02:38 PM

looks like i have research to do...

ArcAngel · 05-14-2009, 02:41 PM

Yes you do and you will be surprised how much quality stuff FRPP has with a full warrenty on it

Very nice car though I would have gotten the touch screen Nav. I don't know how much longer I can wait in limbo for the Camaro, I keep visiting the Mustang build site.

i wouldn't be able to decide between the nav or shaker 1000. It would be nice if ford would let you get both.

in your opinion....0-60 in 4.6 and .85 on the skid shows that you are wrong...it drives so smooth and when you punch it it throws u back....and great mpg? yeah gj shopping for a gas saver muscle car hahah ...plus just like some mustang guy here said you can easily get 20+ mpg on the highway as well..
so last of the bunch? interior from the charger isnt bad at all really clean plain ? yes but i dont shop muscle cars to have some fancy interior with glowsticks all over the place. It has a comfortable interior ...huge trunk and great drivability...if i wanted a track car i would go buy a solstice gxp coupe which destoys everything on the track. mygig is great if your into music and of course styling is #1 in my book and #2 and a close #1 on many camaro guys on here....so yeah least competant of the 3? no is has nothing to be worried about, it sells well and didnt make the stupid decision of mass producing to try and take the mustang on in mass sales so everyone and their mother has one.

To add my opinion, I was disappointed when I seen both cars in person. Both look much better in pics than in person. The camaro looked MUCH too chunky. The parts that I thought were ugly in pics (the double rear bumper, the cheap looking fog light openings) weren't that bad, but the things like the fake gills looked kinda bad, the grill looked of cheap plastic (mustang too) and the "hips" section on the door looked too comprimised, losing way too much of it's sharpness.

The mustang's main issue was the really large rear glass. If they could have made it smaller (yes, i do know why they kept it) to have a more similar line as the camaro on that section, it would have looked a ton better. That, and the rear was kinda mixed. That double bumper look they have too is what had me not so sure on that. And their wheel selection (on the v6) is poor as well.

Slip off the brake and bury the throttle. There's a light chirp as tires scratch for bite. Then comes a sub-5.0-second sled ride to 60 mph. 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."
