GO right ahead if you want. I want to see what you think comparing both. Don't let my quick review take you in one direction or another. I have one years worth of driving the Camaro SS M6 and 15 minutes worth of the Mustang GT 5.0. I did hit the 5.0 hard twice and it has a similar push you back in your seat feel as the Camaro. However the Camaro's stock exhaust is louder and sounds more aggressive. THe stock GT 5.0 has a shorter throw vs the stock Camaro SS and to me feels like butter when shifting where the Camaro is not as smooth in comparison. Pressing down on the clutch was easier on the Mustang as well. Ultimately I love my Camaro, but if I can get a modest trade in amount for my SS, I will go to the dark side and get another Mustang. I previously drove a Mustang for 10 years before buying the Camaro SS. And my last name starts with Kona as the first four letters so Kona blue would be the color choice I get.. And yes the Camaro still looks cooler/hotter than the Mustang however at the moment that would not trump the actual feel of the car. Also the interior on the Mustang 5.0 is laid out a lot better than the Camaro's even though it has grown on me.
