Even the base Camaro does not feel ENTRY LEVEL. It feels like a high quality cruiser in its' own right. And it is a head turner! Is a base Stang a head turner?

We are at an interesting point with the two cars. Camaro Gen 6 will be getting smaller. That, to some, is a good thing. To be seen, and it's GM's biggest challenge in keeping the momentum "real"...

Meanwhile the ZL1 has stepped up the game to reach "exotic" level acceptance.

The reality is the Camaro vs. Mustang days are about over. The writing is on the wall as Motor Trend did a Mustang GT vs. BMW M3 comparison, not ss vs. gt. Second have you seen the numbers that the 13' gt500 put UP? It is faster than the corvette zo6. And we all know that chevy is not going to let a camaro outrun a corvette. While the ZR1 can run with a base vette. The gt500 will now blow it's doors off. I hate to say it but Ford has called Chevy's bluff..............
