Don't blame you on the decision. I remember talking with you about which camaro you wanted to get lol. How things change in a heartbeat, enjoy the new ride.

Yep it was around Dec in 2014 when I found my car

. It was the first car that I got after college with my money and it will always be that "special one".

Thank you all who actually helped me pick my car over a year ago and helped me with all my questions after the accident.

Ahhhhh.....ok for posting.......

I just did the opposite, traded my '13 5.0 for my "12 SS. The mustangs are nice cars & I think you will enjoy it. The '15's and up are much nicer than the previous years like mine. I do find my camaro to be much smoother & all around better cruising car that my mustang. However Ford fixed a lot of that with the '15 models. I think you will like it. The 5.0 is a screamer of an engine.

nice car and light years ahead of the previous model mustang..i hated the looks when they first came out but now i love them..
one small problem with them though IT'S STILL A FORD

How does it feel power wise compared to the SS? Acceleration? Shifting? Ride? Nice car!

ChocoTaco369 · 03-12-2016, 10:58 PM

Not my thing, but different strokes. Enjoy the new ride.

I'd like to hear a comparison versus your old car. The 6th Gen Mustangs appear to be eerily similar to the 5th Gen SS's from the numbers.

Nice car I just picked up a new mustang. You got a good deal I paid like 4K more than that. I wish someone would hit and total my camaro so I could justify buying a C7 my camaro has been nothing but trouble.

Nice looking GT, I've been tempted by the GT350, but am too modded for straight line. Ford did a nice job designing the new Mustangs and you got a killer deal.

I had an '07 Edge, then a '12 Lincoln MkZ. Both were absolutely trouble free. Good luck with the new ride. Just too many of em on the road these days for my tastes.

Funny you should say that, before buying mine, I used to say the same thing. These days, at least in this part of the country things appear (IMO) to have changed. 4-5 years ago, between those who owned them & rentals, when you drove through Vegas, Mustangs were everywhere. Now, it's Camaros. Last summer, we drove out to the Sky Walk over the Grand Canyon (a couple hours outside Vegas) and I swear every 10th or so car we saw was Camaro (most of which I would guess were rentals) and we, maybe, saw 1/2 dozen Mustangs.
