Below is a video review from KellyBlueBook.com to give you a little more info on the 2010 Camaro:
I purposely compared the V8 Mustang to the V6 Camaro because they have almost the same power output. The Camaro even comes standard with an independent rear suspension, putting it in the same league as the Mustang GT.
The Ford Mustang is relatively unchanged over the previous 2009 model. Some new changes include entirely new sheet metal (except for the roof line), 15 additional horsepower, and a finer tuned suspension. This will be the first year that the Camaro will be sold since it was discontinued in 2002. Meaning the Mustang will have plenty of reliability info to fall back on and the Camaro will not...possibly a selling point for some.
From the data, it's evident that the Camaro is a better value. However, that doesn't stop me from wanting a Mustang GT. Perhaps the underlying coolness of the 2010 Mustang is more appealing to me than the 2010 Camaro's "hey look at me!" Or maybe it's the plethora of options available to make your Mustang totally unique...too bad it's all out of my price range.
We'll see what everyone else thinks once these two go head to head later this year.

I like foreign vehicles. :C
ReplyDeleteBut my father was a Camaro man, so I'll go with that one.
Foreign vehicles are nice, but they are just so darn ugly!
ReplyDeleteThen you have American cars, which are the opposite. We like design, but performance seems to fall behind.
Maybe that says something us as a culture.
Ooh, nice insight. Perhaps it does... then again, the U.S. is one of the more fast-paced, work-oriented cultures of the West. Don't French employees get mid-day naps or something like that?
ReplyDeleteI find Aston Martins to be particularly appealing.
Oh my gosh. I love Aston Martins. Just the fact that you get a V12 with 6.0 liters is amazing. And of course there is that James Bond feel every time you get behind the wheel =D
ReplyDeleteYeah, a lot of uropean countries get breaks throughout the day. I think that might be because Unions are much more prevalent in Europe than here in America.
