Chevrolet Camaro Snatches Sales Crown From Mustang

Chevrolet Camaro Snatches Sales Crown From Mustang
Carscoops.com http://www.carscoops.com/2017/05/che...les-crown.html
"The Chevrolet Camaro has managed to snatch away the muscle car sales crown from the Ford Mustang following a successful April.
Last month, a total of 8,737 Camaros found new homes in the United States compared to the 8,063 Ford Mustangs that were sold. Despite only being a relatively small advantage for Chevrolet’s third-best-selling model, it does return the Camaro to a spot it once dominated.
Prior to the sixth-generation Mustang being launched, the Camaro was consistently the highest-selling muscle car in the U.S. and dominated the top spot for the better part of five years from 2010. "
(During most of Gen5 production years.) I'm seeing relatively a lot of the Gen6 version on the roads here in Raleigh lately.
Terrific job Chevy Camaro Team!

Awesome news! Words finally getting out I guess.

I do wish Chevy would steal that Lighting Blue color from Ford. It's freaking gorgeous.

Thanks for posting that side by side. Did Ford have a slightly darker blue last year or the year before by chance? That's close to what I remember seeing, but not quite. The Hyper Blue really is beautiful.

EDIT: I fired up Google. I meant the Deep Impact Blue Metallic. That's what I want.

Deep Impact Blue was replaced by the Lightning Blue in 2017. Deep Impact shaded a little more toward purple IMO.
