I like all three of the cars, I tend to pull more for whatever i drive at the time, but all three cars have their strong points.

Doesn't matter what brand it is really, it's a great time to be a fan of american pony cars.

All three offerings have their place, and none of the 3 are a bad car to own.

Congrats and enjoy your new car.

Friends don't let friends drive Fords! That is all.

That's not going to the dark side. Mustangs are cool. I thought you were going to say that you're buying a Volvo. Now that would be going to the dark side.

I'll just say this...I'm on my 3rd top on my vert right now and I'm waiting on legal feedback from GM. If that new 5.0 had a HUD in it...I wouldn't hesitate to trade my vert in for a vert 5.0. Especially with that blue/purple color they have - it's beautiful in the sun

Mustang might be my next step too, congrats man! Not a fan of the decals, but it's still cool.

I've only had my 1le for a month.. but looking down the road about 3-4 yrs, I wouldn't be surprised if a s550 follows me home. I'm not a brand lover. The camaro hit more check boxes than the mustang... This time. Who knows what will happen with the 6th gen vs s550 vs c7 vs ??? Comparo.

I traded my 2011 2SS in for a 12 5.0 and have NO regrets.

I think the Camaro looks better, both inside and outside, but it is slower and costs more across the board. Sure, the Camaro comes with more stuff standard, but it prices some people out of the market. As a note, even the cheapest 2013 Mustangs come with HID headlights, LED accents on the front, and LED taillights.

The performance discrepancy is most obvious in the V6 versions. According to Chevy, the 2013 Camaro V6 does 0-60 in 6.4 seconds. That’s hardly slow, but not really fast. The V6/performance pack Mustang runs 0-60 in 5.1 seconds. That is downright fast, V6 or V8. It is a shame that Chevy can’t get with the program and offer a V6 performance package.

I traded in my Camaro for a 2013 Roush Stage 3.

Enjoy your car. Looks awesome.

Nice looking ride. I am really going to miss the look of both the Mustangs and Camaros when these generations are discontinued.
