Well browsing the internet one day I come across a 15 2SS RS 1LE and I thought oh what the heck I should go drive it and just see how it is, honestly thinking in my head it won't hold a candle to the 16GT I have on order. Well long story short... at first start up of the 1LE with the NPP Exhaust I was sold. The Camaro just feels more like a sprts car to me with the raked windshield and small windows. Just feels like you are looking out of a rocket ship. After driving the 1LE I thought I was just too impatient about waiting for my Mustang and needed to fulfill the itch right then and then. I left the Chevy Dealer and proceeded across the street to the Ford Dealer and drove a 16GT PP back to back with the Camaro. For me personally there wasn't even a comparison. The Mustang is a great car, don't get me wrong, but the best way I can describe it is refined. The Camaro is raw and connected where as the mustang is more civil and quiet. If I were to daily drive the car I probably would have stuck with the mustang but since the purchase was for a weekend toy car I had to go with the Camaro. I love it! I haven't even looked at a mustang since and while I still respect and love the mustang the Camaro was a clear cut winner for me. Good luck in your decision as I know how easy it is to always second guess a decision but just go with what puts the bigger smile on your face. I know I did.
I might feel the same way! I'll hop in an SS as soon as I can and take it for a spin. The visibility thing is probably going to suck but damn it looks cool with the small windows.
