Look forward to seeing you guys on the streets, or preferably, the strip. Hopefully Chevy will deliver your car before gas prices kill it. Having you guys around will give the Honda boys someone else to go bother instead of me. Any word on a projected release date? You guys have to be frustrated having GM drag your hopes along for this car for years now, meanwhile Challengers are already on the streets. Not rubbing salt in the wound, but I understand the frustration.

Kind of reminds me of when Art Model stole our Browns, our main rival the Pittsburgh Steelers supported us and the movement to get our Browns back.

And then they were our enemies again!

as for the honda boys. they still bug me in my silverado and it's stock. what's up with that? hopes haven't been dragged they are out in front and the challenger is just that only a challenger. can't compete. . .lol. only kidding. all I got to say is to each his own.

Yea, though I drive through the valley of the shadow of rice, I shall fear no turbo, for the torque art with me. Thy rod and thy piston, the comfort me.

No offense, but the Challenger absolutely reeks of "rush job" now that I've seen the Camaro. The base model Camaro is more appealing than the top model Challenger as far as amenities go.

I'm happy they took their time!

But I think above all, we will stand united as Muscle Car fans.....especially when the Middle East starts making cars.
That's because in general American Muscle Car owners kick azz!

Perhaps it comes from that deep rooted knowledge that each of us has about how superior our vehicles really are.

Hey man, last year was great, but I think this year we're going to really have a team to be proud of. MUCH tougher schedule than last year, but I think the tough schedule will make us stronger in the playoffs. :fingerscrossed:

Nice to see some sanity. Reminds me of pulling into Blockbuster video a few years ago, and these 3 men about 50 years old glare at me. Then i see they're standing next to two mustangs. (and i drive a CAMARO obviously)
Get a life!

Rivalry is supposed to be friendly. You're not sworn mortal enemies.


Bragging rights are the ultimate goal, not feelings of hatred...

EDIT: BTW 05GCD, that's a nice looking mustang. I'm digging the retro wavy bar across the shaved back. No emblems make that car much more appealing.

I've never been a hater. From the beginning I've said one of my favorite musclecars were the old fox bodies....preferably the 93 5.0. LOVED it.

I appreciate the owners out there who welcome us back to the track with our new 5th Gens. The best part of the story?? We get our Camaro's back...badder than ever....and in return, Ford has to up everything on their Mustangs. It's a win/win situation for both of us!!! I've always loved this rivalry....always been a good time.

Welcome, Mustang owners and thanks for stopping by!

Hey, I've said it before and will say it again: I love all american muscle and pony cars so no hostility from me. Where it now for the Camar I'd probably get a current Mustang GT, might still a bit further down the road to have a little collection.

Nice of you guys to stop by!
