Funny...When I was deciding on a new car (drove a 2002 V6 Mustang) I test drove the Mustang GT, the Challenger, and the V6/V8 Camaro...Hmmmm??? No contest...Loved the Camaro SS2 and took her home!

About the jump in Mustang sales, it's just a sales bump in December to reduce Mustang inventory.

You see this kind of December sales trend in any decent model with large inventory.



Huge sales in December are often followed by major drops in volume in January. Expect Mustang sales to drop below normal levels in January.

Wow, what a poorly written article. Talk about putting a spin on a story. Considering Camaro does not yet have a vert, a Z28, and didn't even manufacture vehicles until March, and not sell nary a unit before spotting Ford three plus months, I wouldn't write an article that doesn't mention those FACTS.

The way that article is written makes it seem that they competed all year, and they have an even number of coupes, performance editions, & verts.

Based on those numbers Chevy crushed Ford, and annhilated Dodge. GM knows it, Ford knows it, Dodge knows it, and the writer from Autoblog.com knows it.

The worst part is when the writer claims "and with all of the updates to the 2011 Mustang, we suspect that next year's race won't be nearly as entertaining."

What a POS hatchet job.... how much did Ford pay him to write such garbage?

Very few journalists write without some hidden intention. In this case, not so hidden. It's sad, really.

So if the Camaro raced a Mustang and spotted the Mustang a 3 plus second lead would autoblog crow about how the Mustang won the race despite the fact that the Camaro was clearly the faster car?

LOL.
