Traditionally, Mustangs have had more universal appeal than Camaros, but not by much. I think its around 50/50 in the mustang (men/women) vs 55/45 for the Camaro. I would imagine this trend will continue, there will be more men buying Camaros than women, but not by much. On paper the Camaro LS/LT will be able to sway a lot of buyers because it has more power with roughly the same fuel economy as the V6 Mustangs. Looks are subjective and there will be plenty of people who hate the Camaro and will never set foot in one. Plenty of others will see them on lots and will be drawn towards them. Problem is, we don't really know what the general public thinks of the Camaro. It has gotten lots of attention from enthusiasts on forums like this, by magazines, and at autoshows. But the vast majority of buyers don't do things like that.

I have intentionally avoided calling these buyers women because there are few things that a woman specifically cares about in a car that a man doesn't. Lots of men will be interested in saving several thousand dollars in purchase price, having good fuel economy, etc, and there are women who want to have the fastest, most powerful car they can get.
