As far as the cars themselves Mustangs are more common than Camaros on the road. And this Generation the Camaro is just simply better looking with the worst Mustangs being the 2010-2012 Models with the horrendous tail lights which Ford quickly put an end too after complaints from people and fans and the current 2013 tail lights look waaaay better than the previous ones. The front end of the current Mustangs look pretty good BUT I would say the Camaro has a more muscular look with the Camaros cowl bulge being more prominent. And the fact Ford made its new headlights a copy of the Camaros except with bars on the side was obvious too. But I will say the current Mustangs look alright but the Camaro has more lines and is more exotic and overall a more sophisticated car than the live rear axle Mustang is.

You guys fail at comprehension. I'm not making any arguments on generations per se - only pointing to your insistent use of them to justify your "rare" cars is stupid. You're right - the Civic example was stupid - that's my point.

Technically the 2010+ Mustang is not a new generation yes. Technically there's no difference between the 9th and 8th gen Civics, also yes. Who cares? You can't buy an 8th gen Civic new any more, and you can't buy a 2005-2009 Mustang new any more so the arguments including them are void.

In the end, you go and buy a 2010+ Camaro, or a 2010+ Mustang - that's your choice, and there's more Camaros than Mustangs of the choice you currently have and therefore it's the only thing that's valid.

When you bought your Camaro, do you factor in all the pre-2003 Camaros you see on the road into your decision? No, and that's my point.

You've given your arguments about why you feel your car is rare, because in your hick town you see more Mustangs. Good for you. I see it as a self-created delusion. You're just 1 in 500,000 like the rest of us, and that's a fact.

It's still just your opinion as I said before.

And I never made any statements about the Camaro being Rare and that factored in to the reason I bought it. I bought the Camaro for 2 reasons. I thought it looks great and I am a Chevy Man.

When is A Ford not catching on fire? Yes all cars have had issues, even with catching on fire but Ford takes the cake on those recalls.

Yet they want to knock Chevy for taking the bail out. Who's laughing now Ford?

Yet they say Ford helped built America John D. Rockefeller, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Andrew Carnegie,
"Henry Ford" and J.P. Morgan.

The only reason Ford didn't need a bail out is because they got a huge loan before all of the banks quit giving loans. Yes they were smart in that aspect but they were lucky also because no one expected the economy to tank that bad that fast.
