Man, some people take this "rivalry" way to far, now to the point of despising seeing commercials for the competitor.

I actually like it! watching the car drive makes me want to get in my Camaro and stomp on the gas all around town!
I've seen one Camaro commercial. It was a black Camaro (V8, I think) going up and down over some good size bumps. I can't find it anywhere on the 'net though.

I like it....Competition is good. Ford is on their "A", game with marketing.

I am a mustang fan and I admit that commercial is played out.

Kahdir: I think you found what I've been looking for! Thanks! Not exactly how I remembered it though. Funny how your mind can change things up...

Guys, you know why some products pump their commercials more than normally?
Because they are not selling good enough.

That's a great commercial for the mustang. Dodge has an awesome commercial for the challenger with George Washington driving over a hill with an American flag waving out the window. Where are the camaro commercials??? Especially ones featuring the v8

ye like that band of skulls song, got it on the Ipod. the Ipod I play in my Camaro. Sorry ford, The Camaro has the looks to go with the performance. Plus not every idiot has a Camaro; which I like. There somewhat rare around here! can count a dozen + Stangs on any given trip around town! you might see a camaro once not counting mine on the same trip.

Please define GOOD ENOUGH. The correct amount to sell is ALWAYS...MORE! Ford made over 2 BILLION in profit last quarter. Both Ford and Chevy are making some FANTASTIC cars and trucks. Hopefully both will continue to do this and provide jobs to hard working hard driving Americans as well as Non-Americans.

Ford keeps running the commercial because it's working. If I buy advertising for my business more than once, it's because for every dollar I spend I'm getting at least $1.50 back. I assume both Ford and GM have a similar formula.

I personally love the mustang commercial and wonder why they don't do a 5.0 and Shelby commercial. I would love to see an equally hot Camaro & Vette commercial. The previously posted Chevy commercial was a good commercial for the family guy wanting to make an intelligent purchase. But, with the Camaro and Vette, you would think GM would have a commercial which is pure sex.

We do not purchase pony/muscle cars because of a power train warranty. Since we will mostly void the hell out of it the first 6 months!

Now let's go kill some cayman's, bmw's, evo's and sti's.

I am so sick of seeing this V6 Mustang commercial! I just hear the start of that dumb song and wanna turn the channel.

So what if you "transformed" it. You can thank us we did it first and don't need a stupid commercial to play a hundred times a day. We still out sold and have the hottest car on the road!

Just wonder if anyone else has noticed it playing a lot.
The funny thing is, even you prove how good the commercial works ...

I have seen it, but very seldom in my market lately. I think it's a great commercial & I love the song. Everytime I see it I think of "Eleanor" in the Gone in Sixty Seconds movie.

I am not a fan of the Mustang. They are far to common on the streets & they have the same rounded roofline as a VW bug. There's no doubt it is a performer, it just doesn't have the sexy styling of the Camaro.

Just my 2 cents.
