So we'll see what Dodge has left once Ford responds and Chevy brings their new platform and model car to play!

The 2015 Challenger will still be rolling on the same LC platform they've used since 2008. The handling abilities of the old LC have and will continue to pale in comparison to the the more agile offerings of the other two manufacturers. This will be even more evident once S550 Mustang and Alpha Camaro come on the scene.

Dodge will indeed have the high HP throne for at least a model year or two. Especially since Ford is focusing on developing the GT350 (which though it will be range topping at first it will be more aligned with Z/28 than the current GT500), and not releasing the next gen GT500 until after GT350, also if I remember correctly Chevy has stated that they will not look to chase Hellcat like power output for Camaro.

Weight- Mustang only gained 86lbs (manual) and 52lbs (auto) while gaining a bump in HP and low end TQ production (CMCP addition will see to this).
Size- it has a wider tract and sits lower, otherwise it's almost the same as '14
Platform- added rigidity and ILIRS and DBJFS

How are these factors when taken as a whole a sign that the '15 Camaro will outperform the upcoming '15 Mustang?

The 2015 Mustang gained weight and probably won't launch as well with an IRS.

I am sure Ford did their homework to make sure the car can still launch, we will have to weight and see.

And even though the Mustang gained weight (90 or so pounds for manual) it is still lighter than the current Camaro.

I think they look real similar from the side to the current Mustang's except for that quarter window not being father back....Im gonna have to pass on judging it until I see it in person, photos alot of times dont do cars justice and especially that color doesnt show the lines very well on the Mustang.
