Look it's a great car. Definitely one to consider. Both cars have great reasons to choose them. Bottom line drive the cars you'd want to own and pick the one you like the most. You gonna have to live with it. And never look back.

Well...basic bolt ons will put you 1:1 to a fair drive, but how many Mustang drivers roll around stock? It will get interesting in a few months when these hit the streets and people start modding them.

I used to have a 5.0 GT. It was already modded, but I owned it for 6 months and sold it. Could not EVER really enjoy the shitty interior, the ancient body design, and the crappy rear suspension.
While I appreciate the effort, my 1990 300ZX outhandled and outmaneuvered the 5.0 back in the day. I like the sound and potential of the old 5.0, but they rated them at 225 hp from the factory. So weak compared to my Z32 that had a 3.0 V6.

Especially when you live your life a quarter mile at a time.

Being a Mustang officianado that I am:
1969 Musatng Grande 1996 Mustang 3.8L 1997 Mustang Cobra 2003 Mustang "Terminator" Cobra 2005 Mustang GT 2006 Mustang GT "Mach 1 Tribute" 2007 Shelby Mustang GT I still think the 2010+ backend design is absolutely hideous!! They should have kept the S197 (2005-2009) backend design. |

You can join the Camaro Owners an have a differing color, so the best way to find your car in a parking lot is to hit the alarm a few times.You can tell yourself your car is special....not rare but special.
Imagine how many Stangs are out there already,and only owners will be able to tell the difference in the year or engine packages. 10k Zs or so in '09 probably the same numbers again this year. Latest Camaro production numbers (April 09) - Camaro Forum - 2010 Camaro 2011 Camaro / Camaro Z28 SS Forums - Camaro5.com I think the last page says about 30k Camaros so far and GM is hoping for 100k units a year ,do your think Ford wants a piece of that market,how many Mustangs will they build? Hurray for the generic muscle car,change your rims so yours will be a bit different for the other 3 on your block. |

I just looked at it for the first time...First impressions:
Looks exactly like the current 500+ Mustangs I see on the street today. No major body overhaul from first glances, initial impressions. If you're looking to blend in with the general population I guess this is good. Interior looks cheaper than my 03 Liberty. Actually, it reminds me of the Chrysler 300 interiors. Cheap city. Blah plastic and ENOUGH with the throwback gauges. Upon watching the video linked above, I couldn't help but notice body roll as well as the complete nosedive the car makes under hard braking. Looks real sloppy. Sure the numbers are impressive. But what are your intentions? Drag strip? Daily driver? I think those should be the deciding factors when weighing the Mustang and 370. |
