If you compared the 2010 Camaro SS ($31,000) to the 2010 Mustang GT ($29,000) then yes there was that $2,000 difference in price. However for that difference in price you got better content not to mention that the Mustang GT had a 4.6L 315BHP engine while the Camaro SS had the 426BHP 6.2L engine. Still during that model year the Camaro clearly outsold the Mustang even though there was a $2,000 price difference. In order to get a Mustang with the same things that the Camaro had you had to opt for the Premium package which in 2010 actually made the Mustang cost more then the similarly equiped Camaro 1SS.

2010 Camaro V6 started at $23,000 and the 2010 V6 Mustang started at $22,000 a $1,000 difference in price. The 2010 Mustang you could option up to about $30,000, I don't see a huge deal with being able to option the Camaro up to $32,000, how many of these cars were optioned out fully loaded?

Its not like 1984 where a $2,000 price difference was a 20% difference, a $2,000 difference in price today about 7%. Having a difference of $2,000 means much less today then it did in 1980.........
I guess we'll have to agree to disagree or else this back and forth could keep going and going.
