Price and availability get buyers.

Production of the F-Body ceased due to slow sales......Ford dominates the market by building 130-140,000 Mustangs per year.

I hear ya, but I've never seen people check out a car like the Camaro is
getting checked out. I'm telling you this car throws people into a frenzy.
Sometimes the attention I get can be a little overwhelming.

That's a good thing.....You won't see Challengers and Camaros everytime you turn the corner. It's good for those owners that appreciate value with their purchases.

It's a bad thing for GM and Dodge because they loose market share to Ford.

Hmmm you need to consider people being afraid of the brand for what just happen to Pontiac...That is a consideration to look at.

You know there is a reason you see lots and lots of mustangs all the way from fox's to s197s......its because they last. Mustangs are the TRUE pony car and will not be going any where soon...

BTW Welcome back Camero. Come on in and hang around this time

Friend selling me Mustang BS

So I've obviously been talking a lot about the new Camaro and how awesome it is. Of course I have friends that are Ford and Dodge guys, so I've been having the usual arguments of why the Camaro is going to kill them both Well, one guy on my paintball team is either making up some SERIOUS BS about the V6 Mustang, or is being lied to himself and is too stupid to see through it.

Anyway, he's trying to tell me that his dad has a V6 Mustang that is getting 32 MPG on the highway.... Also, he says that the 2010 Mustangs start at $12,000 I immediately stated that wasn't possible, but he seemed pretty strong in his beliefs so I just let it go. Though any story I get from him I'm going to be thinking twice before I accept it now...

Hm, well if those are true then maybe the MPG is possible. But the 12k is definitely ridiculous lol
