I liked sitting in it as well, the interior is really nice, except for the chintzy chrome toggle switches. I really would have liked it but the payments I'd be looking at were much more than I would have liked so I didn't go for it. They sound great and loud with just a catback, no headers needed for volume.
They are easy on the eyes, I hate the chrome toggle switches as well and the damn seatbelt chime lol makes my skin crawl...

Make no mistake I am a Chevy man never owned a ford, while brand loyalty is Nice you can't not take a look at the competition and appreciate it every now and then.

Get yourself a low mile ZL1.
Sean lol a low mile ZL1 is still a big chunk of change.

Once the 2016 Camaros come out, you will see the same trend all over again.
You might be seeing rental 6 bangers on the road but GT's are harder to come by, Hideous might be a tad much don't you think? I agree on the Fads and the masses that have no idea what it means to be behind the wheel of these iconic muscle cars. 5th gens also fell victim to this and while they are still great to look at its definitely time for a change and diet, when you compare them side by side and have an open perspective the Camaro is HUGE!



I am looking forward to seeing the unveiling and am hoping for some much needed updates, may 16th cannot get here soon enough.

Did Ford announce a GT500? I have only seen the GT350 announced. I'm curious to see what their supercharged version will be....a GT500 or possibly a SVT.

I have been flirting with the idea for a couple of days now no decision will be made until I see the finished product on the 16th. But the 2015 has grown on me and I haven't owned a Camaro for 3 years so my patience is wearing thin.
If you have the money do it...I want one of each haha.

Life is short. Outside of your friends and family, there is little reason to be loyal. Brand loyalty IMO is the worst of the worst.

If we were all completely loyal to our jobs, we'd never advance and turn down opportunities to make more money elsewhere. You could be grossly underpaid and mistreated by them and not even know it. Why be needlessly loyal?

Wait til 2016 and drive them both. See what you like better. Maybe you really WILL like the Mustang better. If you truly enjoy the Mustang more and you buy a Camaro instead just because it's a Camaro and the "better" car is the Mustang, you're really missing out and hurting yourself.

The 2015 Mustang is the first design I've liked since the '03-'04 Terminator. I still like the Camaro better...and that's why I own a Camaro. To each their own.

THIS!

Live a little! But understandably posting on a CAMARO forum you're going to get biased reviews for the most part.

But come on now... you gotta admit this 'Stang is pretty sick

I actually really like the '13-14 Mustang. I'm trying to talk myself out of being brand loyal next time a car choice comes around.

When I bought the Camaro, the primary reason I bought it over the Ford was that I could get everything I wanted with an '11 since I couldn't afford the '13 Mustang I would have wanted. Next time I'm hoping that's not much of an issue.

Meh. Sounds terrible. Looks are growing on me but this video doesn't do a thing to convince me. Sorry.

Lol ya that video didn't do it for me, I was not a fan of the 10-14 mustang. Although they were faster at the track.
