wouldn't put the 09 mustang dead last; i think its even w/ the camaro interior; both are pretty standard plastic insides, not bad though. i like the camaro interior but i don't buy cars for interiors really. if you want a good interior go pontiac or maybe even 2010 mustang.

--------------------- On another note, Do you guys Feel up your Interior Plastics every time you drive?? My Point is Most of you guys are so obsessed with having a Non plastic Dash board. and the truth is You Will Almost never Touch your Dash board!!!! Unless your cleaning it and who the hell cares if your interior is plastic?

the interior is not bad enough to give up the camaro styling or the V8 for pete's sake... its not even that bad, just not as refined as some cars. the seats are good though.

Ok so I have to comment on some of this. I rented a 2010 Camaro so I could see how I liked it. It drove great, but seeing out the rear quarters is a nightmare. The interior is ok but sort of cheaply made. The passenger seat is way too low and can't be adjusted any higher. I paid $200 to see if it was something I wanted to buy. Sure, people love to look and gawk at it, but if that is all you want then just drive around in a clown suit with a rubber nose, people will still look at you. I'm more interested in the driving experience than what others think.
I also drove two 2010 mustang GT's. The visibility is better, it feels more like driving any other car. The interior materials are better and don't have that cheap appearance. The emergency brake handle is nowhere near your knee, I don't see how that is possible. And a full power passenger seat is available. Also, I don't buy into the "wait for the better engine" philosophy. The 4.6 is proven and reliable. The new engine is an unknown. I don't care if the SS has more power. I don't race people on the street. The GT is plenty quick enough for my needs. For all these reasons I have ordered the Mustang and I feel as though I made the decision based upon what I experienced with both cars, rather than what others think and say about it. I think it would be a mistake to choose either car without driving both.

If there's one thing Ford/Chevy know how to do, it's make a good V8. IMO, you'll be sorry you didn't wait for Coyote at roughly 400/400. It's coming and fast in response to the Camaro. But whatever, enjoy your car man.

Enjoy the mustang, but honestly, I could really care less if the passenger seat is not power adjustable. I won't be sitting in it ever, so I really don't care As for interior materials being 'cheap'... i still don't understand this one. Its a Camaro, a muscle car, not a luxury vehicle. If you are that worried about the quality of the interior, get a Caddy or something... Anywho, as I've stated before, the only real things that keep me from seriously considering the mustang are the engines (less power, less MPG), and the looks of the rear end (it kind bubbles outward, just looks weird to me). But if these things don't matter to you, than by all means, get what YOU want and not what everyone ELSE wants you to get

My question to you is this: have you driven a 2010 GT or is this just all talk?

I recently drove my cousins 07' dark grey GT with the 5 speed, nice car, quick, really fun to drive. I like the mustangs but something tells me I just might like my SS better when it arrives.
