This is widely incorrect. The Mustang has more visibility than the Camaro and it weighs less. The Camaro, however, has a lot of advantages. The truth is that the 2011 Mustang has clearly targeted the Camaro. I will go ahead and point out that the aftermarket is an important refuge for a performance car owner. The Camaro will have a year of aftermarket with its engine while the 2011 Mustang will be using a new motor. As a result, the Camaro will have parts available before the Mustang, creating an advantage when it comes to performance tuners who own the Camaro.

I'm alert but not concerned yet. Until we have some estimates, its just another engine.
