Seem's like a smart move to me. Does it suck in some way's sure but it's great for the company as a whole.

And here's one for you. I have 650 horse on a stock 2009 4.6 that has been ran hard and is running strong. So is that big 6.2 really that much better? I dont think so. So just because for what ever reason Ford did'nt make them more powerfull, I dont know. I guess it's because they already had something more powerfull.
The bigger the motor the more power it will hold. There is no replacement for displacement. Your 4.6 will definitely not hold as much power as a 6.2... You're beyond me if you believe it will.

My favorite Camaro is the 2002 as far as exterior design goes.
Of course it has to do with it's 8 year absence. Even an idiot could see that.

wow, lot of mustang drivers interested in the camaro5 forums;
heres the way i see it;
all the way around i cant find a way that mustang looks better but thats my opinion;
mustangs do handle better,,,if they are turning and not accelerating, but they suck in a straight line, cant even get them off the line;
camaro is 1/10th slower in quarter mile than gt500,,,if u have professional drivers;
with one tenth of a second its only gonna matter who is driving;
interior, IMO, mustang is seriously behind but hey like i said, IMO;
i only owned v6 camaro, 97 model and i still beat all the new v6 mustangs so i am not impressed with the v6 models and the v8 models just can NOT keep up;
thats what made me decide to order the 2010 camaro ss, just seems like an all around better car;
you can argue mustang will be better next year but news flash: its not 2011 yet!!

P.S. gt500 is force inducted car,,,, why is it even compared to NA car

I did'nt know he had a ZR1 and that's a nice car. I would love to road race you in my car but I dont have any experience there. I garauntee if it's in the hand's of someone with experience I would'nt be worried, and it is part of what I had in mind when building this car.

I am up for some (let's say for the sake of not being banned) fun on the street preferably in the moutain's and I would'nt be the slightest bit worried with my abilities there.

I'm sure it does'nt have anything to do with the fact that it was not in production for 8 year's and if they keep that lead then good for them. I wish them the best and right now they need a maracle.
Yeah, and the Mustang also out sells Corvette and Lambo and Porsche ect ect. But it gets out sold by a Honda Civic. Sales dont mean a better car. LOL I hate when people try to use that one. Of course more people will buy the Barbie Mustang over a Camaro...they think its the same thing, but cheaper. Even if 95% of the sales are 6 bangers with Thelma and Louise driving them off cliffs and through grocery stores or into peoples homes, all because they thought they were hitting the brakes.
