I thought the same thing. If you don't like it, don't read it!

How am I being coy? It's not like he said, "my camaro sucked, I love my new mustang." How exactly was he provoking anyone? All he said was he traded in his camaro on a mustang. People trade in their sti's on evos and post it up on the sti forums and I've never seen anyone say, "don't let the door hit you in the ass." Have you ever thought that maybe the huge amount of negativity and hate is the reason you guys have so many mustang owners prowling the forums? Maybe expecting a REASONABLE level of respect and maturity is too much to ask.

"Both are great cars but it was time for a change for me.

Sometimes you just have to move on. "

How provocative.

To each his own. I'm a fanatic, so I won't understand the purchase, however, you certainly moved into a great car.

autobotaz - Lame! Dude (or so it seems) you traded your "pimp ass" camaro for a girly yellow mustang? A v6 mustang at that? I'm sorry but owning a yellow v6 mustang cries ''chic car'' ...lol. I would put a male driving a yellow v6 mustang in the same category as a man driving a vw bug convertable... Ok, maybe a notch different. Anyways, sorry dude I just had to give you sh!t about it Hope you take it well because I can be a smartass sometimes.

Honestly I love the look of the Camaro and the attitude it has and attention it still gets. If I was going for pure practicality and performance only bang per buck I would have gone with the Stang too...But yeah I love my camaro too much if I somehow win the lottery i'll be whipping around in both!...at the same time!!

I can fully understand changing brands and wanting to try different cars out. It's like eating pizza. It's by far my favorite food ,but I don't want to eat it every day. Once in awhile I like a burger or wings. Good luck with the car until next year.

The Camaro was my first Chevy, the Mustang is my second Ford. I can say I really love both cars and to those who have posted here stay safe and enjoy your Camaros. Thanks, Autobotaz
