After seeing both the new Camaro and Mustang in person, I have to go with the Mustang for both DD and track driving. I just can't deal with that damn baby blue color they had it in... Yuck.

My family has had a history with Camaro's. My dad and my mother both had one. And ive always wanted one too lol. Camaro for me please!!!

- I find the Camaro looks better

- Has a better suspension setup (independednt on all four corners)
- Has 6 gears

- It may weight about 200 pounds more. But its still got more power.

Im not gonna argue with you Mustang guys. Cuz the same war will rage on forever. I love Mustangs, just im giving my reasons id choose the Camaro.

I cant wait to see test comparison videos of the two cars!! Been long time since the last one! this should be a good battle tho!

The Camaro is the better performing car, and I'm sure it'll be faster and more subjectively worthy of purchase.

But the Mustang has the advantage of looking one million times better, having a less spotty history (really, the carp faced Camaro was ridiculously far off from it's roots), and most importantly, being less expensive to modify--and that will always be the case.

Ill take the camaro, but the mustang in that blue color looks good too.

butcher · Mar 16, 2009, 4:08 PM

i chose the mustang because i really dont like how the rear end of the camaro looks. as far as performance its clear that the camaro is faster than the gt mustang, but is there going to be a camaro aimed at taking down the gt500?

teXas · Mar 16, 2009, 4:24 PM

Hey Tesla... How about showing production Camaro pics?
And, the blue Mustang isn't a 2010.

Mustang for me, I don't like the Camaro, because the way it looks, and I don't know the way it performs but I don't think that a car that looks that heavy could perform right... so, just don't like it, I'll go with the Mustang

FerrariEzon · Mar 16, 2009, 5:28 PM

The camaro because it is the sexiest looking thing GM's got. It is so much faster than the mustang, it's more refined, it handles better, the V6 in the camaro has almost as much power as the V8 in the mustang, and its just better looking. It is my realistic dream car. NO ONE BETTER DISAGREE.

TheDarkKnight · Mar 16, 2009, 5:48 PM

I'm gonna go with the Camaro...hands down...hope to own one soon. You can't say no to that sexy look! Especially if it's not a car that everyone has...like it's Found On Road Dead rival!

The only advantage the Stang has over the Camaro is it's price...but what people don't see is that the Camaro has always been more powerful than the Stang...300HP V8 Stang vs 300HP "BASE" V6 Camaro...

And you know this, how?

VTEC_Dreams · Mar 16, 2009, 8:33 PM

It will be funny when the Camaro owners start snapping that shfancy independent rear in places when they get crazy modding the engine.

butcher · Mar 16, 2009, 11:02 PM

thats very true, the camaro will handle better than a gt because of the independent suspension but start trying to throw down high power numbers and low times at the strip and youre going to be wishing you had a solid rear end like the mustangs (minus the cobra of course)

AESG · Mar 17, 2009, 12:32 AM

camaro for me!! waited for this car a lot of time, and didnt dissapoint me.

Kaoss · Mar 17, 2009, 12:47 AM

Mustang for both. The Camaro interior is way to much for me.

This is yucky...

Compared to...

To me, Ford hit all the right notes this time with the 2010 Mustang.

WOOOOOT
