I think, styling wise we were all looking for radical changes... Like somehow, the proportions of the camoflauged mule were supposed to radically change. I guess we were hoping for camo moldings fooling us on the shape.
But when the Mustang came out... I felt disappointed too. It took me a visit to the Dallas auto show to see how nicely crafted the Mustang is... I think the Mustang is leagues nicer looking than the last gen. Street performance doesn't disappoint and quality is there... Theres a couple of cheap plasticky areas to the mustang interior that I'm surprised over considering how high it can get up in price. But when loaded out. You'll notice the bigger ticket items over the plastic.
That said, Mustang interior quality improved in materials but is closer to the revised 2012+ mustang in styling while Camaro went radically different with minor hints to the last gen interior. Lighting and seats seem more aggressive and the Camaro stance looks meaner. While the Camaro grille and the Malibu share some styling hints. It's not plagued with the fusion coupe stigma of theMustang. Those will be some brownie points for the Camaro in terms of sales. The camaro rear seems to need more drama though considering the amount of real estate back there..
That said, it seems how nice the Camaro looks will be strongly color dependent. Not every color looks all that, such as the electric blue Camaro... It's not a great color at least from pictures. I can't say the Mustang has a bad color to it. Every color brilliantly matches the Mustangs lines and curves.
The mustang is nice enough for Mustang die hards to keep choosing it next year. But I think this camaro will hit 6 figure sales first year out.
