As far as looks are concerned, the 2 are different.


Camaro's are loud, flashy, and can be seen from far away. They have a great design and look great.


Mustangs are generally more discreet, and sleek, which is what I prefer. I don't want people to see me from a mile away, I want people to see me when I'm at the light next them (and they do, and the looks never get old )

That's yet to be seen. If it is, it is. But no one has tested a 2.73 car as far as I know, so no one really has any idea how quick/fast it will be, especially compared to the 3.55 car.

Actually it is 3.31s, the 3.55s are only optional on the 5.0.

It's not an "evil" cartoon car, either.
Fronts looks good... it's the back I can't stand!

BTW... Love the new Bullitts... and the 01s also...

I read the 3.73 is also available on the track package for the 3.7.

Okay, my bad, lol. Still quite a jump from 2.73s.

No, it's the 3.31s with the performance package V6, 3.73s again are a 5.0 V8 option (stock 3.31s BTW).

Yep, still a pretty decent jump. , I think once they get into owners hnds, the best performance package cars/drivers will hit mid 13s, and the 2.73s will squeak into the 13s, again not the average times, just what I think is a best of scenario.

So the v8 GT gets 3.31s stock, and a 3.55 AND 3.73 option?? Damn, lol. The v6 Mustang gets 2.73s stock, which should keep us pretty close, and 3.31s optional, which should give them a distinct edge. Unless they are crappy drivers, lol. Excellent!!

I personally think the new Mustangs are photogenic. I like them in pictures, but I can't really stand to look at them in real life.

i like the 2011 body style. love it? not really. but mine is a sleeper. nothing to draw attention to itself. looks like nothing. totally ordinary. till it whopps ass. speed matter. looks dont as much.
