Mustang owners are kicking themselves..

ha ha - the subject heading is misleading!

Mustang owners are kicking themselves (not because of the Camaro) but because the 2010 Mustang's interior is a million times better than the previous iteration, and the 2011 Mustang GT will have 400hp. Maybe they should have waited!

My point is this: the 2010 Camaro isn't perfect, and no doubt GM is going to improve the quality of the interior in a few years, and probably release the Z28 and probably the version after this will also look hotter and have better features. For example, barely a year later and the new Camaros have backup sensors, and in June 2010 there's an HUD. Do you wish you waited a few more months?

What's your opinion on all this? I'm justifying buying the Camaro (still waiting for mine) because I'm a nostalgic fellow and I'm likely to keep my car "forever". Therefore it's worth spending more on this car rather than perpetually upgrading sedans (because I get bored of them after a while). I figure it's best to just buy a cheap but practical sedan (and accept that I will get bored of it) and spend a bit more to get an additional fun and hot car (Camaro) that I will keep much longer (therefore I don't care about upgrading the sedan because it's not my "hot" car, thereby saving money - see buying a Camaro is fiscally prudent! ;-) ).

However, am I going to kick myself when another iteration gets released with much nicer interior or hotter looks/features in a few years time? Or do you think this version is special in some way, maybe because it has been immortalized by the Transformers movies?

What's your view?
