Be honest, how many are thinking of going with the new S650 Mustang now? - Page 5 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Not me. Just bought a 2022 1SS 1LE.

Val Walkinshaw · 09-18-2022, 06:29 PM

The interior is hideous and the exterior is tolerable.
Albeit an improvement, I'd still go with a C8.

I don't think there is a single base C8 that has been sold for anything as low as $65k realistically.

When I looked at the new mustang, there was something I liked about it. Ohh, that's right, they took quite a few styling features of the camaro and added it to the mustang. Not a bad move for Ford since Chevy won't be using them.
I have a first gen and I have a 23'ZL1 with an ETA next month that I won't be getting rid of. Although I won't replace my Camaro with the mustang, I may add that to my toys once it is out and I can actually lay hands on it. I got Ford's new F-150 when that came out and had nothing but issues. So now I have a Ram TRX on order. Hopefully the Dark Horse won't have similar issues as the F-150 and Mach-E.

Goofy dash, still no sunroof option. Nope, I'd get a new 2022 SS over the Mustang, but the exterior does look better, but that's not hard to do.

KMPrenger · 09-19-2022, 09:31 AM

Except for maybe the Dark Horse, I don't think the S650 looks all that good to be honest.

It's alright, but the Camaro looks meaner.

lbls1 · 09-19-2022, 09:56 AM

If the Camaro quits then its a real possibility. I am not a fan of the current generation vette. Its either the mustang or an older vette.

crysalis_01 · 09-19-2022, 10:04 AM

I imagine the question posted in this thread will be a much more impactful one in say 2026. When the others (Camaro and Challenger) are either gone or no longer recognizable as the pony cars of old. When the EV versions are out and FoMoCo has the last of it's highest performance ICE Mustangs on the ground along side its own EV versions selling side-by-side on the same lots.

snizzle · 09-19-2022, 12:14 PM

It'll certainly be interesting. I would have never considered a Mustang previously.

raptor5244 · 09-19-2022, 01:15 PM

And now they are saying ICE will be available in an 8th gen Mustang as long as customers want it. What a concept...

Pass on the Mustang. I'll be driving the Camaro until I'm not able to get my license renewed, hopefully 15 or 20 more years. I had one Mustang that I got in '66. An OK car for the time and I drove it for 8 years but had to get a valve job and transmission overhaul during that time. I did look at a Mustang GT convertible in '05 since there was no Camaro but went with an Infiniti Coupe instead. Drove that for 11 good years until I got the '17 2SS in August '16. That's my keeper.

What in the hell is an "opinionated" product? I think Ford needs to go back to college and refresh themselves on word-salad-woke-platitudes and double-think meanings....lol...

I think they are referring to the fact that on one hand they are building and EV but on the other they are still committed to a Mustang with 500hp V8. I don't care, what I like is that they are committed to selling both.
