Mustangs were always a less expensive option to the Camaro.
What is interesting is how the Challenger sales are moving up. Man that car is huge and drives like patio furniture. The 2011s are supposedly a big step up, but that is one large vehicle.
The Camaro is so much better looking than the Mustang as to be ridiculous, i think it's poor visibility is losing it sales.

Seems like that is something that some people commonly state however whenever I research I find this not to be true. The MSRP of the Camaro and Mustang at least from the 1990s until the Camaro was killed off has generally been within $200-$400 of eachother with sometimes the Mustang being cheaper and other times the Camaro being cheaper.
Its possible that during this period of time Ford offered heavy incentives on the Mustang to help it sell better. However the Mustang being cheaper seems to be a complete myth.
As far as the 2011 Mustang being one large vehicle its the same exact size as the 2010 model year.
