I own a Camaro SS actually, and a GT500 so I know exactly when someone is just blowing smoke out of their a$$ to start another VS thread. Of course I have the GT500 and not the POS V6 so I do have the much better interior in my car. I'm thinking of upgrading my SS interior if Chevy makes any further, changes say next year or something.

I think he was comparing the Camaro to the Challenger. Both are far from nimble but I think its fair to say that the Camaro has better handling.

I've driven a V6 Mustang as well. The engine itself is pretty good, and feels stronger than the V6 Camaro. But like most of Ford's newer cars, the auto transmission does not get along well with the engine. A manual V6 with 3.31 gears would be a completely different animal than the 2.73 rear automatic rentals.

new v6 stangs are faster than our cars
