Light, Bright, Non-color
Quote:
Bright, an antonym would be “dark”, an adjective would be “sunlit” or “vivid”, Non-color- This I may have to take back because if something lacks color or if it is of non-color than it has no interest or vividness. I think if someone was to say that the Camaro lacked interest or vividness we would have to tak’em’out. However, black, gray and white are considered “lacking a manifestation of color”. Thanks for keeping up! Last edited by Georgianne; 07-24-2008 at 02:57 PM. |

we all know the Maro will cost much more than the Stang exactly how much we will find out soon , now as to the weight issue ,imagine driving a Maro with 2 extra passangers in there each weighing 200 pounds , That is the HANDICAP the Maro has to deal with vs the Stang. Not just for acceleration but also for cornering and braking a lot of people don't realize that extra weight affects you in a lot of different ways performance wise...

The 2008 Mustang has this option. also it comes with the option of side curtain air bags as well. The Mustang is lighter for many reasons, 1) 4.6L Aluminum Engine (it's smaller) 2) Aluminum Hood and roof. 3) Solid Rear Axle not IRS. 4) SIZE.. ..........................Camaro...Mustang wheel base...........112.3......107.1 length..................190.4.....187.6 width...................75.5.......73.9 height................. 54.2.......55.4 track front...........63.7........62.8 track rear.............63.7.......63 F/R Bal................52/48......51/49 curb weight (lbs)...3,870......3,450

smaller, less advanced platform for two... one could go on about quality, and robustness.... And it does not cost WAY less, because we don't even know what the Camaro will cost (though you can take to the bank that the difference in price won't merit a "WAY") |

One Could but we have not seen the Camaro yet, it's interior looks very "Pontiacish" if you know what I mean, but then again I own a Mustang and the interior is plastic looking. as far as Mustang Quality I have no complaints, I have over 300 1/4 mile runs, several laps logged in at VIR with some 150 mph runs, 55,000 miles and not one issue (knock on wood) Granted this is my First Ford so I do not know what the quality was like before the S197, but compaired to my GM Products, very comparable..

You are correct about the engine and the roof... but the SS has an aluminum hood too. |

If you pick up the latest Motortrend Magazine, it is estimated to run from: $22,000 - $33,000.

I'm hoping that the 2010 Camaro will be significantly faster than the 2010 Mustang GT. Just like the 2002 Z28 compared to the 2002 Mustang GT. Anything less will result in me waiting for the 'top dawg' Camaro - whatever it's called.

Just wait until the cars hit the street, and if 13.3 is the best they can do then I'll eat my hat. Stock fourth-gens can hit 13.3 and the 2010 will have a noticably better power to weight ratio. |

the Camaro and Mustang has always played leap from, and more recent the Camaro has been faster., if the 2010 Mustang stays around 3500-3600 pounds and gets the 365 hp 5.0 then I see them neck and neck. but right now chevy is pitting the SS against the 2009 Challenger as it's compatition, they are simular in weight, hp and looks, and I beleive in price (camaro will be cheaper 33-35k) the mustang wil still come in below 30K
