You have a mature and intelligent opinion that's still all your own. DON'T LOSE THAT.

That said...it has been and will be till the end of time...good-natured rib-poking. Mustang v. Camaro, the eternal struggle.

Chevrolet and Camaro fans don't bash the mustang nearly as much as mustang fans hate the Camaro. I've never been to a mustang web site, but a lot of mustang owners sure show up here.

Right now Mustang fans are fighting in between themselves over the new 5.0 on their own sites.

I've poked around over on ModdedMustangs and MustangSource and such, there isnt a great deal of Camaro/Challenger bashing, but alot of mutual throat cutting over the 2011 V6 and GT.

Mostly 2010 owners who are all butt hurt over the 2011 5.0, trying to shoot it down left, right and center about how the 4.6 is better.

Really? Don't think so.

I think the new 5.0 will be a killer motor. Better than the 4.6? Yes.

<Coming from a 2010 Mustang GT owner.>

I think the bandwagon has written off of the 4.6 and forget how easy it is to FI. Blower = $5K and 500WHP. The 2010 is lighter than the 2011 by about 70lbs. No shame in owning a 4.6 if one looks at the numbers.

My first post here, I like cars! I read a lot of different forums, I've owned a few mustangs. My opinion is, very few cars are left stock, I like to make them my own. My 4.6 is my daily driver and I love it! I just think the people on the mustang sites complain about the new mustang because it makes there car slow(er). Time to upgrade or mod but this old guy doesn't worry, I love making non-car guys wonder what just happen as they read the tag Quick3v!
